He stood up and praised Allah, exalted be He, and glorified Him, then he said: 'Indeed, I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'You will face trials and disputes after me.' Someone said to him, 'O Messenger of Allah, what do you command us to do?' He replied: 'Obey the Amir (leader) and his companions.' And he pointed to Uthman while saying this."
وَأَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَسْتَأْذِنُ عُثْمَانَ فِي الْكَلَامِ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ فَقَامَ فَحَمِدَ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ سَتَلْقَوْنَ بَعْدِي فِتْنَةً وَاخْتِلَافًا أَوْ قَالَ اخْتِلَافًا وَفِتْنَةً فَقَالَ لَهُ قَائِلٌ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ بِمَا تَأْمُرُنَا؟ قَالَ «عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْأَمِيرِ وَأَصْحَابِهِ» وَهُوَ يُشِيرُ بِذَلِكَ إِلَى عُثْمَانَ
