[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ sent me to Abu Bakr, so I gave him the good news of Jannah (Paradise). Then, he sent me to Umar, and I also gave him the good news of Jannah. Then, he sent me to Uthman, and I gave him the good news of Jannah, despite the trials that would befall him. Uthman then took me by the hand and went with me until we reached the Prophet ﷺ . Uthman said to him, "O Messenger of Allah, what is this trial that afflicts me?" I swear by Allah that I had not indulged in any luxury, nor did I desire or seek any worldly pleasures, nor have I touched a woman since I embraced Islam or since I pledged allegiance to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Jahiliyyah (pre-Islamic period of ignorance). The Prophet ﷺ said to him, "Indeed, Allah will dress you in a robe. And if the hypocrites desire to remove it from you, do not remove it."  

الطبراني:٥٠٦١حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ زُهَيْرٍ التُّسْتَرِيُّ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ ثَعْلَبَةَ ثنا أَبُو يَحْيَى الْحِمَّانِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ الْأَعْلَى بْنُ أَبِي الْمُسَاوِرِ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَرْقَمَ قَالَ

أَرْسَلَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِلَى أَبِي بَكْرٍ ؓ فَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى عُمَرَ ؓ فَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ ثُمَّ أَرْسَلَنِي إِلَى عُثْمَانَ فَبَشَّرْتُهُ بِالْجَنَّةِ عَلَى بَلْوَى تُصِيبُهُ فَأَخَذَ عُثْمَانُ بِيَدِي فَانْطَلَقَ أَوْ ذَهَبَ بِي حَتَّى أَتَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ مَا هَذِهِ الْبَلْوَى الَّتِي تُصِيبُنِي؟ فَوَاللهِ مَا تَغَنَّيْتُ وَلَا تَمَنَّيْتُ وَلَا مَسَسْتُ فَرْجِي بِيَمِينِي مُنْذُ أَسْلَمْتُ أَوْ مُنْذُ بَايَعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَا زَنَيْتُ فِي جَاهِلِيَّةٍ وَلَا إِسْلَامٍ فَقَالَ لَهُ «إِنَّ اللهَ مُقَمِّصُكَ قَمِيصًا فَإِنْ أَرَادَكَ الْمُنَافِقُونَ عَلَى خَلْعِهِ فَلَا تَخْلَعْهُ»
