3704. Abū Al-Ash'ath Aṣ-Ṣana'ānī narrated: "Some people were delivering Khutbah in Ash-Shām, and among them were Companions of the Prophet ﷺ. So the last of them, a man called Murrah bin Ka'b, stood, and he said: 'If it were not for a Hadīth I heard from the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, I would not have stood (to address you). He (ﷺ) mentioned the tribulations, and that they would be coming soon. Then a man who was concealed by a garment passed by. So he said: "This one will be upon guidance that day." So I went towards him, and it was 'Uthmān bin 'Affān. I turned, facing him, and I said: "This one?" He said: "Yes." (Ṣaḥīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth is Hasan Ṣaḥīh. There are narrations on this topic from Ibn 'Umar, 'Abdullāh bin Ḥawālah, and Ka'b bin 'Ujrah.

٣٧٠٤ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الْوَهَّابِ الثَّقَفِيُّ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَيُّوبُ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي قِلَابَةَ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي الْأَشْعَثِ الصَّنْعَانِيِّ «أَنَّ خُطَبَاءَ قَامَتْ بِالشَّامِ،» وَفِيهِمْ رِجَالٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَقَامَ آخِرُهُمْ رَجُلٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ: ‌مُرَّةُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ، فَقَالَ: لَوْلَا حَدِيثٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا قُمْتُ، وَذَكَرَ الْفِتَنَ فَقَرَّبَهَا، فَمَرَّ رَجُلٌ مُقَنَّعٌ فِي ثَوْبٍ، فَقَالَ: هَذَا يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَى الْهُدَى، فَقُمْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَإِذَا هُوَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ، قَالَ: فَأَقْبَلْتُ عَلَيْهِ بِوَجْهِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: هَذَا؟ قَالَ: نَعَمْ. هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ. وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، وَعَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ حَوَالَةَ، وَكَعْبِ بْنِ عُجْرَةَ.

Commentary

The narration proves that 'Uthmān bin 'Affān was right and he supported the truth and his action was correct. It is proven by this narration that objections against him were just false accusations.
