✧ We set out as pilgrims and arrived in Madinah intending the Hajj. While we were in our lodgings, setting down our baggage, someone came to us and said, "The people have gathered in the mosque and are alarmed." We went and found the people gathered around a group in the middle of the mosque. There were 'Ali, al-Zubayr, Talha, and Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas. As we were thus, 'Uthman b. 'Affan came wearing a yellow cloak, having wrapped it over his head. He said, "Is 'Ali here? Is Talha here? Is al-Zubayr here? Is Sa'd 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 for twenty thousand or twenty-five thousand and came to the Messenger of God ﷺ and informed him. He said, 'Make it part of our mosque, and its reward is yours.'" They said, "O God, 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 bought it for such and such and came to the Messenger of God ﷺ and said, 'I have bought it for such and such.' He said, 'Make it a drinking place for the Muslims, and its reward is yours.'" They said, "O God, yes." He said, "I adjure you by God, besides whom there is no deity: do you know that the Messenger of God ﷺ looked at the faces of the people and said, 'Whoever equips these—meaning 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, "O God, yes." He said, "O God, bear witness. O God, bear witness."
