Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Abu Qalabah (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that a man from the Quraysh, who was called Thumamah, was in Sana'a when the news of the martyrdom of Hazrat Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) reached him. Upon hearing this, he began to weep and continued weeping for a long time. When he became silent, he said: "Today, prophethood or the caliphate of prophethood has been taken away. Now there will be kingship and oppression. Whoever prevails over something will consume it."
