Hadith 3:82
Bishr ibn Shu‘ayb narrated to us, my father narrated to me, from al-Zuhri, ‘Urwah ibn al-Zubayr narrated to me that ‘Ubayd Allah ibn ‘Adi ibn al-Khiyar informed him that ‘Uthman ibn ‘Affan said to him: "O son of my brother, did you reach the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace?" He said: I said to him: "No, but there reached me of his knowledge and certainty what reaches the virgin in her private quarters." He said: Then he testified, and then said: "As for what follows: Indeed, Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, sent Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, with the truth. I was among those who responded to Allah and His Messenger, and I believed in that which Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was sent with. Then I performed the two migrations, as I have said, and I attained the kinship of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and I pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. By Allah, I did not disobey him, nor did I deceive him, until Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, took his soul."
حدثنا بشر بن شعيب، حدثني أبي، عن الزهري، حدثني عروة بن الزبير أن عبيد الله بن عدي بن الخيار أخبره، أن عثمان بن عفان قال له: ابن أخي، أدركت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم؟ قال: فقلت له: لا، ولكن خلص إلي من علمه واليقين ما يخلص إلى العذراء في سترها. قال: فتشهد، ثم قال: أما بعد، فإن الله عز وجل بعث محمدا صلى الله عليه وسلم بالحق، فكنت ممن استجاب لله ولرسوله، وآمن بما بعث به محمد صلى الله عليه وسلم، ثم هاجرت الهجرتين كما قلت، ونلت صهر رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، وبايعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم، فوالله ما عصيته ولا غششته، حتى توفاه الله عز وجل .
