حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْعَبَّاسِ الْأَصْبَهَانِيُّ ثنا سَهْلُ بْنُ عُثْمَانَ ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ زَكَرِيَّا بْنِ أَبِي زَائِدَةَ ثنا قَيْسُ بْنُ الرَّبِيعِ عَنْ مَيْسَرَةَ بْنِ حَبِيبٍ عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ قَالَ

شَهِدْتُ عُثْمَانَ يَخْطُبُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ قَائِمًا وَشَهِدْتُ مُعَاوِيَةَ يَخْطُبُ قَاعِدًا فَقَالَ «أَمَا إِنِّي لَمْ أَجْهَلِ السُّنَّةَ وَلَكِنِّي كَبِرَتْ سِنِّي وَرَقَّ عَظْمِي وَكَثُرَتْ حَوَائِجُكُمْ فَأَرَدْتُ أَنْ أَقْضِيَ بَعْضَ حَوَائِجِكُمْ وَأَنَا قَاعِدٌ ثُمَّ أَقُومَ فَآخُذَ نَصِيبِي مِنَ السُّنَّةِ»

✧ I witnessed 'Uthman delivering a sermon on the pulpit standing, and I witnessed Mu'awiyah delivering a sermon sitting. He said, "Indeed, I have not been ignorant of the Sunnah, but I have grown old, my bones have become frail, and your needs have increased. I wanted to attend to some of your needs while sitting, then stand and take my share of the Sunnah."
