أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبِي يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ حُصَيْنِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ جَاوَانَ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي تَمِيمٍ ذَلِكَ أَنِّي قُلْتُ لَهُ أَرَأَيْتَ اعْتِزَالَ الْأَحْنَفِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ مَا كَانَ؟ قَالَ
سَمِعْتُ الْأَحْنَفَ يَقُولُ أَتَيْتُ الْمَدِينَةَ وَأَنَا حَاجٌّ فَبَيْنَا نَحْنُ فِي مَنَازِلِنَا نَضَعُ رِحَالَنَا إِذْ أَتَانَا آتٍ فَقَالَ قَدِ اجْتَمَعَ النَّاسُ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَإِذَا النَّاسُ مُجْتَمِعُونَ وَإِذَا بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِهِمْ نَفَرٌ قُعُودٌ فَإِذَا هُوَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَالزُّبَيْرُ وَطَلْحَةُ وَسَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ فَقُمْتُ عَلَيْهِمْ قِيلَ هَذَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ قَدْ جَاءَ قَالَ فَجَاءَ وَعَلَيْهِ مُلَيَّةٌ صَفْرَاءُ قُلْتُ لِصَاحِبِي كَمَا أَنْتَ حَتَّى أَنْظُرَ مَا جَاءَ بِهِ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ أَهَاهُنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ؟ أَهَاهُنَا الزُّبَيْرُ؟ أَهَاهُنَا طَلْحَةُ؟ أَهَاهُنَا سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ أَتَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ يَبْتَاعُ مِرْبَدَ بَنِي فُلَانٍ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَهُ» فَابْتَعْتُهُ فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنِّي ابْتَعْتُ مِرْبَدَ بَنِي فُلَانٍ قَالَ «فَاجْعَلْهُ فِي مَسْجِدِنَا وَأَجْرُهُ لَكَ»؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ فَأَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ يَبْتَاعُ بِئْرَ رُومَةَ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَهُ» فَأَتَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ قَدِ ابْتَعْتُ بِئْرَ رُومَةَ قَالَ «فَاجْعَلْهَا سِقَايَةً لِلْمُسْلِمِينَ وَأَجْرُهَا لَكَ»؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ فَأَنْشُدُكُمْ بِاللهِ الَّذِي لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا هُوَ هَلْ تَعْلَمُونَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ يُجَهِّزْ جَيْشَ الْعُسْرَةِ غَفَرَ اللهُ لَهُ» فَجَهَّزْتُهُمْ حَتَّى مَا يَفْقِدُونَ عِقَالًا وَلَا خِطَامًا؟ قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ اللهُمَّ اشْهَدْ اللهُمَّ اشْهَدْ اللهُمَّ اشْهَدْ

✧ I heard al-Ahnaf saying: I came to Madinah while I was a pilgrim. While we were in our lodgings, setting down our baggage, someone came to us and said, "The people have gathered in the mosque." I went and found the people gathered, and among them a small group seated. There were 'Ali b. Abi Talib, al-Zubayr, Talha, and Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas. I stood by them. It was said, "This is 'Uthman b. 'Affan, he has come." He came wearing a yellow cloak. I said to my companion, "Stay put until I see what he brings." 'Uthman said, "Is 'Ali b. Abi Talib here? Is al-Zubayr here? Is Talha here? Is Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas here?" They said, "Yes." He said, "I adjure you by God, besides whom there is no deity: do you know that the Messenger of God ﷺ said, 'Whoever buys the camel pen of Banu so-and-so, God will forgive him'? So I bought it and came to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said, 'I have bought the camel pen of Banu so-and-so.' He said, 'Make it part of our mosque, and its reward is yours.'" They said, "Yes." He said, "I adjure you by God, besides whom there is no deity: do you know that the Messenger of God ﷺ said, 'Whoever buys the well of Rumah, God will forgive him'? So I came to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said, 'I have bought the well of Rumah.' He said, 'Make it a drinking place for the Muslims, and its reward is yours.'" They said, "Yes." He said, "I adjure you by God, besides whom there is no deity: do you know that the Messenger of God ﷺ said, 'Whoever equips the army of hardship, God will forgive him'? So I equipped them until they were not missing even a hobble-cord or a nose-rein." They said, "Yes." He said, "O God, bear witness. O God, bear witness. O God, bear witness."
