حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ الْبَغْدَادِيُّ وَإِسْحَاقُ بْنُ دَاوُدَ الصَّوَّافُ التُّسْتَرِيُّ قَالَا ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ خَالِدِ بْنِ خِدَاشٍ ثنا سَلْمُ بْنُ قُتَيْبَةَ ثنا مُبَارَكٌ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ حَدَّثَنِي سَيَّافُ عُثْمَانَ ؓ
أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ دَخَلَ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ فَقَالَ ارْجِعِ ابْنَ أَخِي فَلَسْتَ بِقَاتِلِي قَالَ وَكَيْفَ عَلِمْتَ ذَاكَ؟ قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ «أُتِيَ بِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَوْمَ سَابِعِكَ فَحَنَّكَكَ وَدَعَا لكَ بِالْبَرَكَةِ» ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَقَالَ ارْجِعِ ابْنَ أَخِي فَلَسْتَ بِقَاتِلِي قَالَ بِمَ تَدْرِي ذَلِكَ؟ قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ «أُتِيَ بِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَوْمَ سَابِعِكَ فَحَنَّكَكَ وَدَعَا لكَ بِالْبَرَكَةِ» قَالَ ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ فَقَالَ أَنْتَ قَاتِلِي قَالَ وَمَا يُدْرِيكَ يَا نَعْثَلُ؟ قَالَ لِأَنَّهُ «أُتِيَ بِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ يَوْمَ سَابِعِكَ لَيُحَنِّكَكَ وَيَدْعُو لَكَ بِالْبَرَكَةِ فَخَرَيْتَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ» قَالَ فَوَثَبَ عَلَى صَدْرِهِ وَقَبَضَ عَلَى لِحْيَتِهِ فَقَالَ إِنْ تَفْعَلْ كَانَ يَعِزُّ عَلَى أَبِيكَ أَنْ تَسُوءَهُ قَالَ فَوَجَأَهُ فِي نَحْرِهِ بِمَشَاقِصَ كَانَتْ فِي يَدِهِ

✧ A man of the Ansar entered upon Uthman, and he said: Go back, O son of my brother, for you are not my killer. He said: How do you know that? He said: Because "you were brought to the Prophet ﷺ on your seventh day, and he chewed a date for you and blessed you." Then another man of the Ansar entered upon him, and he said: Go back, O son of my brother, for you are not my killer. He said: How do you know that? He said: Because "you were brought to the Prophet ﷺ on your seventh day, and he chewed a date for you and blessed you." Then Muhammad b. Abi Bakr entered upon him, and he said: You are my killer. He said: How do you know, O Nathal? He said: Because "you were brought to the Prophet ﷺ on your seventh day so that he might chew a date for you and bless you, but you defecated on the Messenger of Allah ﷺ." So he leaped onto his chest and grabbed his beard, saying: If you do that, it would be hard for your father that you upset him. Then he struck him in the throat with small spears that were in his hand.
