Volume 5, Book 58, Number 265:
Narrated Ibn Abbas:
During the last Hajj led by ‘Umar, ‘Abdur-Rahman bin ‘Auf returned to his family at Mina and met
me there. ‘AbdurRahman said (to ‘Umar), “O chief of the believers! The season of Hajj is the season
when there comes the scum of the people (besides the good amongst them), so I recommend that you
should wait till you go back to Medina, for it is the place of Migration and Sunna (i.e. the Prophet’s
tradition), and there you will be able to refer the matter to the religious scholars and the nobles and
the people of wise opinions.” ‘Umar said, “I will speak of it in Medina on my very first sermon I will
deliver there.”

Volume 5, Book 58, Number 266:
Narrated ‘Um al-‘Ala:
An Ansari woman who gave the pledge of allegiance to the Prophet that the Ansar drew lots con –
cerning the dwelling of the Emigrants. ‘Uthman bin Maz’un was decided to dwell with them (i.e. Um
al-‘Ala’s family), ‘Uthman fell ill and I nursed him till he died, and we covered him with his clothes.
Then the Prophet came to us and I (addressing the dead body) said, “O Abu As-Sa’ib, may Allah’s
Mercy be on you! I bear witness that Allah has honored you.” On that the Prophet said, “How do you
know that Allah has honored him?” I replied, “I do not know. May my father and my mother be sac –
rificed for you, O Allah’s Apostle! But who else is worthy of it (if not ‘Uthman)?” He said, “As to him,
by Allah, death has overtaken him, and I hope the best for him. By Allah, though I am the Apostle of
Allah, yet I do not know what Allah will do to me,” By Allah, I will never assert the piety of anyone
after him. That made me sad, and when I slept I saw in a dream a flowing stream for ‘Uthman bin
Maz’un. I went to Allah’s Apostle and told him of it. He remarked, “That symbolizes his (good) deeds.”
