Al-Maymuni said: I mentioned to Ahmad bin Hanbal (may Allah have mercy on him) the hadith of Ata' al-Khurasani from Abu Salamah from Uthman, and he said: I do not know what it is; the opposite of it has been narrated from Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him). It was said to him: Who narrated that? He said: Habib bin Abi Thabit, from Tawus, from Uthman: he is to be made to stand.
