" عَنْ عَبْدِ الله بْنِ عَامِرِ بْنِ رَبِيعَةَ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ عثمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ بِالْعَرْجِ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فِى صَائِفٍ قَدْ غَطَّى وَجْهَهُ بِقَطيفَةِ أُرْجُوَانٍ، ثُمَّ أُتِىَ بِلَحْمِ صَيْدٍ، فَقَالَ لأَصْحَابِهِ: كُلُوا، فَقَالُوا (لاَ نَأكُلُ) إِلَّا (أَنْ) تأكُلَ أَنْتَ، فَقَالَ: إِنِّى لَسْتُ كَهَيْئتكُمْ، إِنَّمَا صِيدَ مِنْ أَجْلِى".

Yahya related to me from Malik, from Abdullah ibn Abi Bakr, that Abd ar-Rahman ibn Amir ibn Rabia said, "I once saw Uthman ibn Affan in ihram on a hot summer's day at al-Arj,and he had covered his face with a red woollen cloth. Some game-meat was brought to him and he told his companions to eat. They said, 'Will you not eat then?', and he said, 'I am not in the same position as you. It was hunted for my sake.' "
قَالَ رَأَيْتُ عُثْمَانَ بْنَ عَفَّانَ بِالْعَرْجِ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ فِي يَوْمٍ صَائِفٍ قَدْ غَطَّى وَجْهَهُ بِقَطِيفَةِ أُرْجُوَانٍ ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِلَحْمِ صَيْدٍ فَقَالَ لأَصْحَابِهِ كُلُوا فَقَالُوا أَوَلاَ تَأْكُلُ أَنْتَ فَقَالَ إِنِّي لَسْتُ كَهَيْئَتِكُمْ إِنَّمَا صِيدَ مِنْ أَجْلِي
