Hadith 37:574

Ubayd Allah ibn Musa narrated to us, he said: Shayban informed us, from al-A'mash, from Isma'il ibn Raja', from Sakhr ibn al-Walid, from Juz' ibn Bukayr al-'Absi, who said: Hudhayfah came to Uthman to bid him farewell or to greet him. When he turned to leave, he (Uthman) said: "Bring him back." When he came, he said: "What has reached me about you behind my back?" He said: "By Allah, I have not hated you since I loved you, and I have not deceived you since I advised you." He said: "You are more truthful than them and more righteous, go." When he turned to leave, he said: "Bring him back." He said: "What has reached me about you behind my back?" Hudhayfah gestured with his hand like this: "What has reached me about you behind my back? Yes, by Allah, you will surely be driven out like the driving of an ox, then you will surely be slaughtered like the slaughtering of a camel." He (Uthman) was seized by a tremor because of that. He sent for Mu'awiyah, and he was brought, pushing (his way through). He said: "Do you know what Hudhayfah said? 'By Allah, you will surely be driven out like the driving of an ox, and you will surely be slaughtered like the slaughtering of a camel.'" He said: "It began with Uthman."

حدثنا عبيد الله بن موسى قال أخبرنا شيبان عن الأعمش عن إسماعيل بن رجاء عن صخر بن الوليد عن جزء بن بكير العبسي قال جاء حذيفة إلى عثمان ليودعه أو يسلم عليه فلما أدبر قال ردوه فلما جاء قال ما بلغني عنك بظهر الغيب فقال والله ما أبغضتك منذ أحببتك ولا غششتك منذ نصحت لك قال أنت أصدق منهم وأبر انطلق فلما أدبر قال ردوه قال ما بلغني عنك بظهر الغيب فقال حذيفة بيده هكذا ما بلغني عنك بظهر الغيب أجل والله لتخرجن إخراج الثور ثم لتذبحن ذبح الجمل قال فأخذه من ذلك افكل فأرسل إلى معاوية فجيئ ( ( ( فجيء ) ) ) به يدفع قال هل تدري ما قال حذيفة والله لتخرجن إخراج الثور ولتذبحن ذبح الجمل فقال أولها لعثمان
