حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو ظَفَرٍ عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ ، عَنْ عَوْفٍ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْحَجَّاجَ يَخْطُبُ ، وَهُوَ يَقُولُ : " إِنَّ مَثَلَ عُثْمَانَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ ، ثُمَّ قَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ يَقْرَؤُهَا وَيُفَسِّرُهَا : إِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَى إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا سورة آل عمران آية 55 ، يُشِيرُ إِلَيْنَا بِيَدِهِ وَإِلَى أَهْلِ الشَّامِ " .
Awf said: I heard al-Hajjaj addressing the people say: The similitude of Uthman with Allah is like the similitude of Jesus son of Mary. He then recited the following verse and explained it: “Behold! Allah said: O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehood) of those who blaspheme. ” He was making a sign with his hand to us and to the people of Syria.

Benefits and Issues:
The meaning of the statement was that just as Allah Ta'ala granted dominance to Isa (alayhis salam) and his followers over the disbelievers, similarly, the followers of Uthman (radi Allahu anhu) are those who are ruling over the entire land of Shaam, while the others who oppose them are subdued.
