ꜤUthmān Will Never Perform Ṭawāf
سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه ! On one hand, this conversation was going on between Sayyidunā ꜤUthmānرَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ and his cousin in Makkah Mukarramah. On the other hand, the Companionsرَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُم present with the beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم were discussing amongst themselves how fortunate Abū ꜤAbdillāh (i.e., ꜤUthmān Ghani رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ) was, as he would be having the honour of performing ṭawāf of the KaꜤbah.
When the Companions رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُم said this, the noble Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, said: "It is not so; even if ꜤUthmān remains in Makkah for many years, he will never perform ṭawāf before me.”[1]
سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه ! O devotees of the Messenger! What a unique love! Sayyidunā ꜤUthmān رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ is in Makkah Mukarramah, and he is told: "Perform Ṭawāf!" Yet, he replies: "I will never perform Ṭawāf before my beloved Master صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم ".
Look at the trust that the Beloved of Allah صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم had in the love of his beloved Companion! He صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم said: "Even if ꜤUthmān stays there for many years, he will not perform Ṭawāf without me". سُـبْحٰـنَ الـلّٰــه !
May Allah Almighty shower millions of blessings upon Sayyidunā ꜤUthmān رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ. For his sake, may we be granted the eternal treasure of love for the Messenger, love for the Sunnah, and the passion to obey the Beloved صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.
اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ
صَلُّوۡا عَلَى الۡحَبِيۡب صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلٰى مُحَمَّد
