قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ بَلَغَنِي أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ قَالَتْ مَا اسْتَمَعْتُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا مَرَّةً فَإِنَّ عُثْمَانَ جَاءَهُ فِي نَحْرِ الظَّهِيرَةِ فَظَنَنْتُ أَنَّهُ جَاءَهُ فِي أَمْرِ النِّسَاءِ فَحَمَلَتْنِي الْغَيْرَةُ عَلَى أَنْ أَصْغَيْتُ إِلَيْهِ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ ”إِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مُلْبِسُكَ قَمِيصًا تُرِيدُكَ أُمَّتِي عَلَى خَلْعِهِ فَلَا تَخْلَعْهُ“ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْتُ عُثْمَانَ يَبْذُلُ لَهُمْ مَا سَأَلُوهُ إِلَّا خَلْعَهُ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّهُ مِنْ عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ الَّذِي عَهِدَ إِلَيْهِ
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), she says: Only once did I try to listen to the words of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) without his knowledge, and I heard them. The details are that Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) came to the service of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) at noon. I thought that perhaps some command regarding the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had been revealed to him. Thus, my jealousy prompted me to listen closely, and I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: Allah Almighty will clothe you with a shirt, and the people of my Ummah will demand that you take off that shirt, but you must not take it off. When I saw that Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) was fulfilling every request of the people, except that he was not relinquishing the caliphate, then I realized that this was the very matter and covenant that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had made with him.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … Just as the Noble Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) had foretold, in accordance with that, Sayyiduna Uthman (radi Allahu anhu) was appointed to the seat of caliphate and led the Muslim Ummah.
