أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ الْقِرْمِيسِينِيُّ بِهَا، أنبأ أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْكَهِيلِيُّ، أنبأ الْحَضْرَمِيُّ، ثنا اللَّيْثُ بْنُ هَارُونَ أَبُوعُتْبَةَ الْعُكْلِيُّ، ثنا زَيْدُ بْنُ حُبَابٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ سَعِيدٍ - وَكَانَ اسْمُهُ الصِّرْمَ فَسَمَّاهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَعِيدًا - قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي جَدِّي قَالَ: كَانَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ إِذَا جَلَسَ عَلَى الْمَقَاعِدِ جَاءَهُ الْخَصْمَانِ فَقَالَ لِأَحَدِهِمَا: اذْهَبِ ادْعُ عَلِيًّا، وَقَالَ لِلْآخَرِ: اذْهَبِ ادْعُ طَلْحَةَ وَالزُّبَيْرَ وَنَفَرًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ثُمَّ يَقُولُ لَهُمَا: " تَكَلَّمَا "، ثُمَّ يُقْبِلُ عَلَى الْقَوْمِ فَيَقُولُ: " مَا تَقُولُونَ؟ "، فَإِنْ قَالُوا مَا يُوَافِقُ رَأْيَهُ أَمْضَاهُ، وَإِلَّا نَظَرَ فِيهِ بَعْدُ، فَيَقُومَانِ وَقَدْ سَلِمَا.
Umar bin Uthman (may Allah have mercy on him) said: My grandfather narrated to me that when Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) sat in his seat of judgement and two men came to him with a dispute, he would say to one: Go and call Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him). And he would say to the other: Bring Talhah and al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) and a group of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Then he would say to the two disputants: Speak. Then he would turn to the people and say: What do you say? If their opinion agreed with his, he would pass judgement; otherwise he would look into it further. The two would then stand up and shake hands.
