[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ sent a message to Uthman ibn Affan. When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived, we greeted each other and one of us approached the other. Among the last things he said to me was that he struck his shoulder and said, "O Uthman, Allah may clothe you in a shirt. If the hypocrites intend to remove it from you, do not remove it until you meet me, O Uthman. Allah may clothe you in a shirt. If the hypocrites intend to remove it from you, do not remove it until you meet me three times." I said to him, "O Mother of the Believers, where was this from you?" She said, "I forgot it, Wallahi, so I did not mention it." He said, "So I informed Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, but he did not accept what I told him until he wrote to the Mother of the Believers to write to me about it." So she wrote a letter to him about it.  

أَرْسَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا رَأَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَقْبَلَتْ إِحْدَانَا عَلَى الْأُخْرَى فَكَانَ مِنْ آخِرِ كَلَامٍ كَلَّمَهُ أَنْ ضَرَبَ مَنْكِبَهُ وَقَالَ يَا عُثْمَانُ إِنَّ اللهَ ﷻ عَسَى أَنْ يُلْبِسَكَ قَمِيصًا فَإِنْ أَرَادَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ عَلَى خَلْعِهِ فَلَا تَخْلَعْهُ حَتَّى تَلْقَانِي يَا عُثْمَانُ إِنَّ اللهَ عَسَى أَنْ يُلْبِسَكَ قَمِيصًا فَإِنْ أَرَادَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ عَلَى خَلْعِهِ فَلَا تَخْلَعْهُ حَتَّى تَلْقَانِي ثَلَاثًا فَقُلْتُ لَهَا يَا أُمَّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَأَيْنَ كَانَ هَذَا عَنْكِ؟ قَالَتْ نَسِيتُهُ وَاللهِ فَمَا ذَكَرْتُهُ قَالَ فَأَخْبَرْتُهُ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنَ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ فَلَمْ يَرْضَ بِالَّذِي أَخْبَرْتُهُ حَتَّى كَتَبَ إِلَى أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنْ اكْتُبِي إِلَيَّ بِهِ فَكَتَبَتْ إِلَيْهِ بِهِ كِتَابًا
