البيهقي:١٦٨٨٤أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ بْنُ بِشْرَانَ الْعَدْلُ بِبَغْدَادَ أنبأ إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الصَّفَّارُ ثنا سَعْدَانُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ ثنا مُعَاذُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ سُلَيْمَانَ بْنِ مُوسَى قَالَ

كَانَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ ؓ يَدْعُو الْمُرْتَدَّ ثَلَاثَ مِرَارٍ ثُمَّ يَقْتُلُهُ
