حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ زُهَيْرٍ التُّسْتَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ ثنا أَبُو يَحْيَى الْحِمَّانِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ أَبِي الْمُسَاوِرِ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ
أَرْسَلَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ فَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ فَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى عُثْمَانَ فَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ عَلَى بَلْوَى تُصِيبُهُ فَأَخَذَ عُثْمَانُ بِيَدِي فَانْطَلَقَ أَوْ ذَهَبَ بِي حَتَّى أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا هَذِهِ الْبَلْوَى الَّتِي تُصِيبُنِي؟ فَوَاللهِ مَا تَغَنَّيْتُ وَلَا تَمَنَّيْتُ وَلَا مَسَسْتُ فَرْجِي بِيَمِينِي مُنْذُ أَسْلَمْتُ أَوْ مُنْذُ بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَا زَنَيْتُ فِي جَاهِلِيَّةٍ وَلَا إِسْلَامٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ «إِنَّ اللهَ مُقَمِّصُكَ قَمِيصًا فَإِنْ أَرَادَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ عَلَى خَلْعِهِ فَلَا تَخْلَعْهُ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ sent me to Abu Bakr ؓ, and I gave him glad tidings of Paradise. Then he sent me to Umar ؓ, and I gave him glad tidings of Paradise. Then he sent me to Uthman, and I gave him glad tidings of Paradise along with a trial that would befall him. Uthman took hold of my hand and set off, or took me, until he came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: O Messenger of God, what is this trial that will befall me? For by God, I have not sung, I have not wished [for forbidden things], I have not touched my private part with my right hand since I became Muslim, or since I pledged allegiance to the Messenger of God ﷺ, and I have not committed fornication, whether in the time of ignorance or in Islam. He said to him: “God will clothe you with a shirt, and if the hypocrites want you to take it off, do not take it off.”
