عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ عَلَى عُثْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَهُوَ مَحْصُورٌ فَقَالَ إِنَّكَ إِمَامُ الْعَامَّةِ وَقَدْ نَزَلَ بِكَ مَا تَرَى وَإِنِّي أَعْرِضُ عَلَيْكَ خِصَالًا ثَلَاثًا اخْتَرْ إِحْدَاهُنَّ إِمَّا أَنْ تَخْرُجَ فَتُقَاتِلَهُمْ فَإِنَّ مَعَكَ عَدَدًا وَقُوَّةً وَأَنْتَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ وَهُمْ عَلَى الْبَاطِلِ وَإِمَّا أَنْ نَخْرِقَ لَكَ بَابًا سِوَى الْبَابِ الَّذِي هُمْ عَلَيْهِ فَتَقْعُدَ عَلَى رَوَاحِلِكَ فَتَلْحَقَ بِمَكَّةَ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَسْتَحِلُّوكَ وَأَنْتَ بِهَا وَإِمَّا أَنْ تَلْحَقَ بِالشَّامِ فَإِنَّهُمْ أَهْلُ الشَّامِ وَفِيهِمْ مُعَاوِيَةُ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَمَّا أَنْ أَخْرُجَ فَأُقَاتِلَ فَلَنْ أَكُونَ أَوَّلَ مَنْ خَلَفَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي أُمَّتِهِ بِسَفْكِ الدِّمَاءِ وَأَمَّا أَنْ أَخْرُجَ إِلَى مَكَّةَ فَإِنَّهُمْ لَنْ يَسْتَحِلُّونِي بِهَا فَإِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ ”يُلْحِدُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ بِمَكَّةَ يَكُونُ عَلَيْهِ نِصْفُ عَذَابِ الْعَالَمِ“ فَلَنْ أَكُونَ أَنَا إِيَّاهُ وَأَمَّا أَنْ أَلْحَقَ بِالشَّامِ فَإِنَّهُمْ أَهْلُ الشَّامِ وَفِيهِمْ مُعَاوِيَةُ فَلَنْ أُفَارِقَ دَارَ هِجْرَتِي وَمُجَاوَرَةَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) had been besieged, I went to him and said: You are the leader and ruler of the people, and the circumstances that have befallen you are also before you. I present three options before you, you may choose any one of them: Either you go out and fight these rebels, you have strength and many people are with you, moreover, you are upon the truth and their stance is false. The second option is that you leave the door where those people are present, make a way out through a wall of your house, mount your ride and reach Makkah; there, they will not dare to kill you. The third option is that you go to the land of Sham, the people there are good because they are from Sham, and Sayyiduna Mu’awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) is also present there. Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), after hearing these suggestions, said: As for the first option you mentioned, that I go out and fight, it cannot be that I become the first to shed blood after the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). The second option, that I go to Makkah because these people will not kill me there, I submit that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: A man from the Quraysh will commit heresy in Makkah, half the punishment of the whole world will be given to that one man alone. So I will not be that man. And as for the third option you mentioned, that I go to the land of Sham, that the people of Sham are good and Sayyiduna Mu’awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) is also there, I submit that I will not leave my place of migration and the neighborhood of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).
