حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَن عُثْمَانَ بْنِ غِيَاثٍ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عُثْمَانَ عَن أَبِي مُوسَى أَنَّهُ كَانَ مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَائِطٍ وَبِيَدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عُودٌ يَضْرِبُ بِهِ بَيْنَ الْمَاءِ وَالطِّينِ فَجَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَسْتَفْتِحُ فَقَالَ افْتَحْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ فَإِذَا هُوَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ قَالَ فَفَتَحْتُ لَهُ وَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ يَسْتَفْتِحُ فَقَالَ افْتَحْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ فَإِذَا هُوَ عُمَرُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ فَفَتَحْتُ لَهُ وَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ فَاسْتَفْتَحَ فَقَالَ افْتَحْ لَهُ وَبَشِّرْهُ بِ
الْجَنَّةِ عَلَى بَلْوَى تُصِيبُهُ أَوْ بَلْوَى تَكُونُ قَالَ فَإِذَا هُوَ عُثْمَانُ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ فَفَتَحْتُ لَهُ وَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ وَأَخْبَرْتُهُ فَقَالَ اللَّهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ غِيَاثٍ عَن أَبِي عُثْمَانَ عَن أَبِي مُوسَى الْأَشْعَرِيِّ قَالَ كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حَائِطٍ مِنْ حِيطَانِ الْمَدِينَةِ فَذَكَرَ مَعْنَى حَدِيثِ يَحْيَى إِلَّا أَنَّهُ قَالَ فِي قَوْلِ عُثْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْهُ اللَّهُ الْمُسْتَعَانُ اللَّهُمَّ صَبْرًا وَعَلَى اللَّهِ التُّكْلَانُ

English Translation
Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd narrated to us, from ʿUthmān ibn Ghiyāth, Abū ʿUthmān narrated to us, from Abū Mūsā, that he was with the Prophet ﷺ in a garden, and in the Prophet ﷺ's ﷺ hand was a stick with which he was poking between the water and the mud. A man came seeking to enter. He said: 'Open for him and give him glad tidings of Paradise.' It was Abū Bakr رضي الله تعالى عنه. So I opened for him and gave him glad tidings of Paradise. Then another man came seeking to enter. He said: 'Open for him and give him glad tidings of Paradise.' It was ʿUmar رضي الله تعالى عنه. So I opened for him and gave him glad tidings of Paradise. Then another man came seeking to enter. He said: 'Open for him and give him glad tidings of Paradise, along with a trial that will befall him — or a tribulation that will come.' It was ʿUthmān رضي الله تعالى عنه. So I opened for him, gave him glad tidings of Paradise, and informed him. He said: 'Allah is the One whose help is sought.' Muḥammad ibn Jaʿfar narrated to us, ʿUthmān — meaning Ibn Ghiyāth — narrated to us, from Abū ʿUthmān, from Abū Mūsā al-Ashʿarī, who said: I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in one of the gardens of Madinah — then he mentioned the meaning of Yaḥyā's hadith, except that he mentioned in ʿUthmān's رضي الله تعالى عنه words: 'Allah is the One whose help is sought. O Allah, grant me patience, and upon Allah is reliance.'
