Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 3-131b
"عن مهاجر بن حبيب، وإبراهيم بن مصقلة قالا: بعث عثمان بن عفان إلى عبد الله بن سلام وهو محصور فدخل عليه، فقال له: ارفع رأسك ترى هذه الكوة، فإن رسول الله ﷺ أشرف منها الليلة فقال يا عثمان: أحصروك؟ قلت: نعم فأدلى لى دلوا شربت منه، فإنى أجد برده على كبدى، ثم قال: إن شئت دعوت الله فينصرك عليهم، وإن شئت أفطرت عندنا، قال عبد الله: فقلت له: ما الذى اخترت قال: الفطر عنده، فانصرف عبد الله إلى منزله، فلما ارتفع النهار قال لابنه: اخرج فانظر ما صنع عثمان فإنه لا ينبغى أن يكون هذا الساعة حيا، فانصرف إليه فقال: قد قتل الرجل".

"From Muhājir b. Ḥabīb and Ibrāhīm b. Miṣqalah, who both said: ʿUthmān b. ʿAffān sent for ʿAbdullāh b. Salām while he was under siege, and he entered upon him. He said to him: Raise your head; do you see this window? The Messenger of Allah ﷺ looked down from it tonight and said: O ʿUthmān, have they besieged you? I said: Yes. Then he lowered a bucket to me and I drank from it, and I feel its coolness on my liver. Then he said: If you wish, I will supplicate to Allah and He will grant you victory over them, and if you wish, you will break your fast with us. ʿAbdullāh said: I said to him: What did you choose? He said: Breaking the fast with him. Then ʿAbdullāh returned to his house. When the day had risen, he said to his son: Go out and see what ʿUthmān has done, for it is not proper that he be alive at this hour. So he went to him, then came back and said: The man has been killed."
