وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ أَبِي عَمْرِو بْنِ حِمَاسٍ، عَنْ مَالِكِ بْنِ أَوْسٍ قَالَ:

كُنْتُ أَسْمَعُ بِأَبِي ذَرٍّ ؓ فَلَمْ يَكُنْ أَحَدٌ أَحَبَّ إِلَيَّ أَنْ أَرَاهُ وَأَلْقَاهُ مِنْهُ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ عُثْمَانُ ؓ أَنْ يَقْدَمَ عَلَيْهِ، فَكَتَبَ إِلَيْهِ مُعَاوِيَةُ: إِنْ كَانَ لَكَ بِالشَّامِ وَأَهْلِهِ حَاجَةٌ فَاخْرُجْ أَبَا ذَرٍّ، فَإِنَّهُ قَدْ ثَقُلَ النَّاسُ عِنْدِي. فَقَدِمَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ ؓ وَتَصَايَحَ النَّاسُ: هَذَا أَبُو ذَرٍّ، هَذَا أَبُو ذَرٍّ. فَخَرَجْتُ أَنْظُرُ إِلَيْهِ فِيمَنْ يَنْظُرُ، فَدَخَلَ الْمَسْجِدَ وَعُثْمَانُ ؓ فِيهِ، فَأَتَى سَارِيَةً فَصَلَّى عِنْدَهَا رَكْعَتَيْنِ، ثُمَّ أَتَى عُثْمَانَ ؓ فَسَلَّمَ، فَمَا سَبَّهُ وَلَا أَنَّبَهُ، فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ ؓ: أَيْنَ كُنْتَ يَوْمَ أُغِيرَ عَلَى لِقَاحِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ ؟ قَالَ: كُنْتُ عَلَى الْبِئْرِ أَسْتَسْقِي. ثُمَّ رَفَعَ أَبُو ذَرٍّ ؓ بِصَوْتِهِ الْأَشَدِّ فَقَرَأَ: وَالَّذِينَ يَكْنِزُونَ الذَّهَبَ وَالْفِضَّةَ وَلا يُنْفِقُونَهَا إِلَى قَوْلِهِ مَا كُنْتُمْ تَكْنِزُونَ فَأَمَرَهُ عُثْمَانُ ؓ أَنْ يَخْرُجَ إِلَى الرَّبَذَةِ

✧ I used to hear about Abu Dharr ؓ, and there was no one I was more eager to see and meet than him. Uthman ؓ wrote to him to come to him, so Muawiyah wrote to him: "If you have any need of Syria and its people, then leave, Abu Dharr, for the people have become burdensome to me." Abu Dharr ؓ arrived, and the people cried out: "This is Abu Dharr, this is Abu Dharr!" I went out to look at him among those who were looking. He entered the mosque while Uthman ؓ was in it. He went to a pillar and prayed two rak'ahs near it, then came to Uthman ؓ and greeted him. He did not revile him or rebuke him. Uthman ؓ said: "Where were you on the day when the milch-camels of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were raided?" He said: "I was at the well, drawing water." Then Abu Dharr ؓ raised his voice and recited: "And those who hoard gold and silver and do not spend them..." up to "...what you used to hoard." Then Uthman ؓ ordered him to go out to al-Rabadhah.
