عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ قَالَ جَاءَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِأَلْفِ دِينَارٍ فِي ثَوْبِهِ حِينَ جَهَّزَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ جَيْشَ الْعُسْرَةِ قَالَ فَصَبَّهَا فِي حِجْرِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَجَعَلَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يُقَلِّبُهَا بِيَدِهِ وَيَقُولُ مَا ضَرَّ ابْنَ عَفَّانَ مَا عَمِلَ بَعْدَ الْيَوْمِ يُرَدِّدُهَا مِرَارًا
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) appealed to the noble Companions for help for the army of hardship, i.e., the Battle of Tabuk, Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) brought one thousand dinars wrapped in a cloth and poured them into the lap of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) turned those dinars over and over in his hands and said: "After today, whatever deed Uthman does, it will not harm him." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) repeated this statement several times.
