" عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ مَهْدِىٍّ قَالَ: خَصْلَتَانِ لعُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ لَيْستَا لأِبِى بَكْرٍ وَلاَ لِعُمَرَ: صَبْرُهُ نَفْسَهُ حَتَّى قُتِلَ، وَجَمْعُهُ النَّاسَ عَلَى الْمُصْحَفِ ".

"From ʿAbd al-Raḥmān b. Mahdī, who said: Two qualities belonged to ʿUthmān b. ʿAffān that did not belong to Abū Bakr or ʿUmar: his restraining himself (from fighting) until he was killed, and his gathering the people upon the muṣḥaf (the written copy of the Qur'an)."
