قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يَقُولُ: أَنْبَأَنَا أَبُو نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ يَعْنِي مَوْلَى أَبِي أُسَيْدٍ يَقُولُ:
إِنَّ عُثْمَانَ ؓ، نَهَى عَنِ الْحُكْرَةِ، فَلَمْ يَزَلْ رَجُلٌ يَسْتَشْفِعُ حَتَّى يَتْرُكَ مَوْلَاهُ، فَدَخَلَ الزُّبَيْرُ بْنُ الْعَوَّامِ ؓ السُّوقَ فَإِذَا هُوَ بِمَوَالِي بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ يَحْتَكِرُونَ، فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ ضَرْبًا، فَبَيْنَا هُوَ كَذَلِكَ، إِذَا هُوَ بِعُثْمَانَ ؓ مُقْبِلًا عَلَى بَغْلَةٍ أَوْ دَابَّةٍ فَمَشَى إِلَيْهِ فَأَخَذَ بِلِجَامِ الْبَغْلَةِ فَهَزَّهُ هَزًّا شَدِيدًا وَأُرَاهُ قَالَ لَهُ: إِنَّكَ وَإِنَّكَ، غَيْرَ أَنَّهُ اشْتَدَّ عَلَيْهِ فِي الْقَوْلِ، ثُمَّ تَرَكَهُ فَلَمَّا نَزَلَ أُلْقِيَتْ لَهُ وِسَادَةٌ فَجَلَسَ عَلَيْهَا، وَجَاءَ الزُّبَيْرُ ؓ فَسَلَّمَ عَلَيْهِ، وَقَالَ: وَاللهِ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، إِنِّي لَأَعْلَمُ إِنَّ لَكَ عَلَيَّ حَقًّا، وَلَكِنِّي رَجُلٌ إِذَا رَأَيْتُ الْمُنْكَرَ لَمْ أَصْبِرْ. فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ ؓ: اجْلِسْ، فَأَجْلَسَهُ عَلَى الْوِسَادَةِ الَّتِي إِلَى جَنْبِهِ

✧ Uthman ؓ forbade hoarding, but a man kept interceding until he left his client [continue hoarding]. Then al-Zubayr b. al-Awwam ؓ entered the market and found the clients of Banu Umayyah hoarding. He began striking them. While he was doing so, Uthman ؓ approached on a mule or a mount. Al-Zubayr walked to him, took hold of the mule's bridle, and shook it violently. I think he said to him: "You and you..." But it was harsh speech. Then he left him. When Uthman dismounted, a cushion was placed for him and he sat on it. Al-Zubayr ؓ came and greeted him, saying, "By Allah, O Commander of the Faithful, I know you have a right over me, but I am a man who, when I see something wrong, cannot be patient." Uthman ؓ said to him, "Sit," and he seated him on the cushion beside him.
