حَدَّثَنَا مُطَّلِبُ بْنُ شُعَيْبٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ صَالِحٍ حَدَّثَنِي اللَّيْثُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ خَالِدِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ أَبِي هِلَالٍ عَنْ رَبِيعَةَ بْنِ سَيْفٍ أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ أَنَّهُ جَلَسَ مَعَ شُفَيٍّ الْأَصْبَحِيِّ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عَمْرٍو يَقُولُ
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ يَكُونُ بَعْدِي اثْنَا عَشَرَ خَلِيفَةً أَبُو بَكْرٍ الصِّدِّيقُ لَا يَلْبَثُ بَعْدِي إِلَّا قَلِيلًا وَصَاحِبُ رَحًى دَارَّةٍ يَعِيشُ حَمِيدًا وَيَمُوتُ شَهِيدًا قِيلَ مَنْ هُوَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ «عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ» ؓ ثُمَّ الْتَفَتَ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ فَقَالَ «وَأَنْتَ سَيَسْأَلُكَ النَّاسُ أَنْ تَخْلَعَ قَمِيصًا كَسَاكَ اللهُ ﷻ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لَئِنْ خَلَعْتَهُ لَا تَدْخُلُ الْجَنَّةَ حَتَّى يَلِجَ الْجَمَلُ فِي سَمِّ الْخِيَاطِ»

✧ I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "After me there will be twelve caliphs. Abu Bakr al-Siddiq will remain after me only a short time. The owner of a turning millstone will live praiseworthily and die as a martyr." It was said, "Who is he, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Umar b. al-Khattab" ؓ. Then he turned to Uthman and said, "And you: the people will ask you to take off a shirt that Allah ﷻ has clothed you with. By Him in whose hand is my soul, if you take it off you will not enter Paradise until the camel passes through the eye of the needle."
