حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ حَدَّثَنَا أَيُّوبُ عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ قَالَ لَمَّا قُتِلَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَامَ خُطَبَاءُ بِإِيلِيَاءَ فَقَامَ مِنْ آخِرِهِمْ رَجُلٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُقَالُ لَهُ مُرَّةُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ فَقَالَ لَوْلَا حَدِيثٌ سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا قُمْتُ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَكَرَ فِتْنَةً وَأَحْسَبُهُ قَالَ فَقَرَّبَهَا شَكَّ إِسْمَاعِيلُ فَمَرَّ رَجُلٌ مُتَقَنِّعٌ فَقَالَ هَذَا وَأَصْحَابُهُ يَوْمَئِذٍ عَلَى الْحَقِّ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَأَخَذْتُ بِمَنْكِبِهِ وَأَقْبَلْتُ بِوَجْهِهِ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقُلْتُ هَذَا قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ فَإِذَا هُوَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
It was narrated to us by Isma'il ibn Ibrahim, it was narrated to us by Ayyub, from Abu Qilabah, who said: When Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) was killed, orators stood up in Iliya (Jerusalem). The last of them to stand was a man from among the Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) called Murrah ibn Ka'b, who said: "Were it not for a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), I would not have stood up. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned a time of tribulation, and I think he said, 'and brought it near'" - Isma'il was uncertain - "then a veiled man passed by, and he said: 'This one and his companions will be upon the truth that day.' So I went and took hold of his shoulder and turned his face towards the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and I said, 'Is it this one?' He said: 'Yes.'" He said: And it was indeed Uthman (may Allah, the Exalted, be pleased with him).
