Question

Assalam-u-alikum Respected Scholar's,

I have a hadith that I heard a long time ago and I wanted to get the actual text from you and reference. It may have been from Hayatus Sahabah or something I've heard in bayans, but I cannot remember. Apologies in advance as I only remember it vaguely:-

A hadith regarding Hadhrat Uthman (RA). A man was sent by the Prophet (SAW) to ask Hadhrat Uthman (RA) for financial help. The man heard Hadrat Uthman (RA) arguing with his wife about using too much oil, so he returned without asking for help. The Prophet (SAW) sent him again...

Answer

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

We apologise for the belated response. We were unable to locate the incident in reference.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
