"عَن عروة قال: أوصى عثمان بن عفان إلى الزبير بن العوام، وكذلك ابن مسعود، وعبد الرحمن بن عوف، ومطيع بن الأسود، فقال الزبير بن العوام لمطيع: لا أقبل لك وصيةً، قال: أنشدك اللَّه ما أبتغى في ذلك إلا قول عمر، سمعت عمر يقول: قال رسول اللَّه ﷺ: لو عهدت عهدا إلى وتركت تركة ما أوصيت إلا إلى الزبير، إن الزبير ركن من أركان الدين".

"'Urwah said: 'Uthman ibn 'Affan made a bequest to al-Zubayr ibn al-'Awwam, and likewise Ibn Mas'ud, 'Abd al-Rahman ibn 'Awf, and Mut'i ibn al-Aswad. Al-Zubayr ibn al-'Awwam said to Mut'i: 'I will not accept your bequest.' He said: 'I beseech you by Allah, I only seek in this the saying of 'Umar. I heard 'Umar say: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: If I had made a covenant with me and left a bequest, I would have bequeathed only to al-Zubayr. Indeed al-Zubayr is a pillar of the pillars of the religion.'"
