حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الدَّبَرِيُّ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّزَّاقِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنِي نَوْفَلُ بْنُ مُسَاحِقٍ، قَالَ: بَيْنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ يُكَلِّمُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِي اللهُ عَنْهُ - وَكَانَ عَامِلًا لَهُ - فَأَغْضَبَهُ، فَأَخَذَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِي اللهُ عَنْهُ قَبْضَةً مِنَ الْبَطْحَاءِ فَرَجَمَهُ بِهَا، فَأَصَابَ حَجَرٌ مِنْهَا جَبِينَهُ فَشَجَّهُ، فَسَالَ الدَّمُ عَلَى لِحْيَتِهِ، فَكَأَنَّهُ نَدِمَ، فَقَالَ: امْسَحِ الدَّمَ عَنْ لِحْيَتِكَ، فَقَالَ: «لَا يَهُولَنَّكَ هَذَا يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، فَوَاللهِ لَمَا انْتَهَكْتُ مِمَّنْ وَلَّيْتَنِي أَمْرَهُ أَشَدُّ مِمَّا انْتَهَكْتَ مِنِّي» ، قَالَ: فَكَأَنَّهُ أَعْجَبَ عُمَرَ ذَلِكَ مِنْهُ وَزَادَهُ خَيْرًا
Nawfal bin Musahiq (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Sayyiduna Uthman bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him), who was the governor ('amil) of Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him), was speaking with him when he made him angry, so Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) picked up a handful (of pebbles) from the ground of al-Batha' and threw them at him (Sayyiduna Uthman bin Hunayf, may Allah be pleased with him). A stone from it struck his forehead and wounded him, and blood began to flow onto his beard. It was as if Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) felt regret (at this), so he said: Wipe the blood from your beard. Sayyiduna Uthman bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Commander of the Believers! Do not let this trouble you. By Allah, the wrong I have done to those over whom you appointed me is far greater than what you have done to me. The narrator said: It was as if this statement of his greatly pleased Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him), and he increased his kindness towards him.
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، أَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: سَلَّمَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ عَلَى مُعَاوِيَةَ رَحِمَهُ اللهُ، فَقَالَ: السَّلَامُ عَلَيْكَ أَيُّهَا الْأَمِيرُ - وَعِنْدَهُ رَهْطٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الشَّامِ - فَقَالُوا: مَنْ هَذَا الْمُنَافِقُ الَّذِي قَصَّرَ فِي تَحِيَّةِ أَمِيرِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ لِمُعَاوِيَةَ: «إِنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ قَدْ عَابُوا عَلَيَّ شَيْئًا أَنْتَ أَعْلَمُ بِهِ، أَمَا إِنِّي قَدْ حَيَّيْتُ بِهَا أَبَا بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرَ، وَعُثْمَانَ رَحِمَهُمُ اللهُ» ، فَقَالَ مُعَاوِيَةُ: إِنِّي لَإِخَالُهُ قَدْ كَانَ بَعْضُ الَّذِي يَقُولُ، وَلَكِنَّ أَهْلَ الشَّامِ حِينَ وَقَعَتِ الْفِتْنَةُ قَالُوا: وَاللهِ لَنَعْرِفَنَّ دِينِنَا وَلَا نُقَصِّرُ تَحِيَّةَ خَلِيفَتِنَا، وَإِنِّي لَإِخَالُكُمْ يَا أَهْلَ الْمَدِينَةِ تَقُولُونَ لِعَامِلِ الصَّدَقَةِ: أَمِيرٌ
Al-Zuhri said: Sayyiduna Uthman bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) greeted Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him), saying: As-salamu 'alayka ayyuha al-amir (Peace be upon you, O Amir), and with him was a group of the people of Sham. They said: Who is this hypocrite who has fallen short in greeting the Commander of the Believers? At this Sayyiduna Uthman (bin Hunayf) (may Allah be pleased with him) said to Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him): "These people have objected to something in me which you know well; I greeted Sayyiduna Abu Bakr, Sayyiduna Umar and Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with them) in this very (manner)." Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I think there is some truth in what he says, but when the tribulation broke out, the people of Sham said: By Allah, we will know our religion well and we will not fall short in greeting our Caliph. And I think that you, O people of Madinah, call even the official who collects the charity an Amir.
