وَعَنِ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ : مَرَّ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاصِ عَلَى كِلَابِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ ، وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ عَلَى مَجْلِسِ الْعَاشِرِ بِالْبَصْرَةِ ، فَقَالَ : مَا يُجْلِسُكَ هَهُنَا ؟ قَالَ : اسْتَعْمَلَنِي عَلَى هَذَا الْمَكَانِ - يَعْنِي زِيَادًا - فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ : أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَقَالَ : بَلَى . فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : " كَانَ لِدَاوُدَ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ [مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ] سَاعَةٌ يُوقِظُ فِيهَا أَهْلَهُ يَقُولُ : يَا آلَ دَاوُدَ ، قُومُوا فَصَلُّوا ، فَإِنَّ هَذِهِ سَاعَةٌ يَسْتَجِيبُ اللَّهُ فِيهَا الدُّعَاءَ إِلَّا لِسَاحِرٍ أَوْ عَاشِرٍ " . فَرَكِبَ كِلَابُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ سَفِينَةً ، فَأَتَى زِيَادًا ، فَاسْتَعْفَاهُ فَأَعْفَاهُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ .
Hasan al-Basri narrates: Sayyiduna Uthman bin Abi al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) passed by Kilab bin Umayyah, who was sitting in the tithe collector's seat in Basrah. He asked: "Why are you sitting here?" He replied: "He has appointed me as an official at this place"; he meant that Ziyad had done so. Sayyiduna Uthman bin Abi al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: "Shall I not narrate to you a hadith which I heard from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)?" Kilab bin Umayyah replied: "Yes, indeed!" Sayyiduna Uthman bin Abi al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I heard the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The Prophet of Allah, Sayyiduna Dawud (peace be upon him), used to wake his family at a particular part of the night and say: 'O family of Dawud! Get up and pray, for this is an hour in which Allah Almighty answers supplication, except the supplication of a sorcerer and a tithe collector.'" So Kilab bin Umayyah boarded a boat, came to Ziyad and resigned, and he accepted his resignation.
