9 - ʿAbd Allāh narrated to us, saying: Muḥammad ibn Abī Ḥātim narrated to us, saying: Mūsā ibn Dāwūd narrated to us, saying: Ibn Lahīʿa narrated to us, from Sayyār ibn ʿAbd al-Raḥmān, who said: Bukayr ibn ʿAbd Allāh ibn al-Ashajj said to me: "What did your uncle do?" He said: I said: "He has stayed in his house since such and such a time." So he said: "Indeed, men from the people of Badr stayed in their houses after the killing of ʿUthmān—may Allāh brighten his face—and they did not go out except to their graves." (1)
