حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو ظَفَرٍ عَبْدُ السَّلَامِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَوْفٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ الْحَجَّاجَ يَخْطُبُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَهُوَ يَقُولُ:‏‏‏‏ إِنَّ مَثَلَ عُثْمَانَ عِنْدَ اللَّهِ كَمَثَلِ عِيسَى ابْنِ مَرْيَمَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏ثُمَّ قَرَأَ هَذِهِ الْآيَةَ يَقْرَؤُهَا وَيُفَسِّرُهَا:‏‏‏‏ إِذْ قَالَ اللَّهُ يَا عِيسَى إِنِّي مُتَوَفِّيكَ وَرَافِعُكَ إِلَيَّ وَمُطَهِّرُكَ مِنَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا [سورة آل عمران آية 55]، ‏‏‏‏‏‏يُشِيرُ إِلَيْنَا بِيَدِهِ وَإِلَى أَهْلِ الشَّامِ .

I heard al-Hajjaj addressing the people say: The similitude of Uthman with Allah is like the similitude of Jesus son of Mary. He then recited the following verse and explained it: “Behold! Allah said: O Jesus! I will take thee and raise thee to Myself and clear thee (of the falsehood) of those who blaspheme. ” He was making a sign with his hand to us and to the people of Syria.
