"(On the night of Mi'raj, the Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم asked a houri:) 'For whom are you?' She replied: 'For Uthman ibn Affan, who will attain martyrdom.'"

"(The Prophet صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم did not lead the funeral prayer of a man, so when the Companions inquired about the reason, he explained:) This person used to hate Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him), so Allah also hates him."

"When Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) moves from one place to another, Paradise shines for him."

"The Prophet (peace be upon him) stood up, held Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) firmly, then said: 'You are my friend in this world and the Hereafter.'"

"Every prophet has a close friend (khalil) in his community, and my close friend is Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him)."

"On every leaf of the trees of Paradise, (along with my name) is written 'Uthman Dhu al-Nurayn.'"
