Ubaydullah bin Adi bin al-Khiyar states: Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "O my nephew! Did you live in the time of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" He replied: "No! However, the knowledge and certainty of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) reached me as purely as it would reach a secluded maiden behind her curtain." Then Sayyiduna Uthman al-Ghani (may Allah be pleased with him) recited the testimony of faith, then he said: "To proceed: Indeed, Allah Almighty sent Sayyiduna Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) with the truth, and I was among those who responded to Allah and His Messenger. I believed in what the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sent with. I made the emigration twice, as I have stated, and I was granted the honour of being the son-in-law of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I gave my pledge of allegiance to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). By Allah! I never disobeyed the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), nor did I ever deceive him, until Allah Almighty caused the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) to pass away."
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih.
