Uthman ibn Affan ibn Abi al-As ibn Umayyah ibn Abd Shams ibn Abd Manaf ibn Qusayy ibn Kilab ibn Murrah ibn Kaab ibn Lu'ayy ibn Ghalib al-Qurashi al-Umawi (al-Makki e, depois, al-Madani), Abu Amr, e foi dito também Abu Abdullah e Abu Layla.

Uthman ibn cAffan ibn Abi’l-cAs ibn Umayyah ibn cAbd Shams ibn cAbd Manaf ibn Qusayy ibn Kilab ibn Murrah ibn Kacb ibn Lu’ayy ibn Ghalib al-Qurashi al-Amawi (al- Makki and then later al-Madani) Abu cAmr, and it has been said Abu cAbdullah and Abu Layla.

Ele nasceu no sexto ano depois do Ano do Elefante, e abraçou o Islã muito cedo, sendo um daqueles que as-Siddiq convidou ao Islã. Emigrou nas duas emigrações: a primeira para a Abissínia e a segunda para Madinah.

He was born in the sixth year after the Elephant, and he accepted Islam very early on, being one of those whom as-Siddiq called to Islam. He emigrated on both emigrations: the first to Abyssinia and the second to Madinah.

Ele se casou com Ruqayyah, filha do Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ, antes da profecia, e ela faleceu durante as noites da Batalha de Badr. Ele ficou impedido de participar de Badr por causa da doença dela, com a permissão do Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ, que lhe atribuiu uma parte dos despojos e o recompensou; por isso, ele é contado entre os participantes de Badr.

He married Ruqayyah the daughter of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, before prophethood, and she died with him during the nights of the Battle of Badr. He was held back from Badr, because of her becoming ill, with the permission of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, who assigned a portion of the spoils to him and rewarded him, and so he is counted among the people of Badr because of that.

Um mensageiro trouxe a boa notícia da vitória dos muçulmanos em Badr no mesmo dia em que a sepultaram em Medina. O Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ casou-se com a irmã dela, Umm Kulthum, depois dela, e ela veio a falecer [casada] com ele no nono ano da Hégira.

A messenger brought the good news of the victory of the Muslims at Badr on the same day that they buried her in Madinah. The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, married him to her sister Umm Kulthum after her, and she later died [while married] with him in the ninth year of the Hijrah.

Os homens de conhecimento disseram: Não conhecemos ninguém que tenha casado duas filhas de um profeta, além dele, e por esse motivo ele é conhecido como Dhu'n-Nurayn - o Possuidor das Duas Luzes.

The men of knowledge said: We don’t know of anyone who married two daughters of a prophet apart from him, and for that reason he is known as Dhu’n-Nurayn - the Possessor of Two Lights.

Ele foi um dos primeiros a abraçar o Islam (as-Sabiqun al-Awwalun), o primeiro dos Muhajirun, um dos dez a quem foi testemunhado que estavam destinados ao Paraíso, e um dos seis com quem o Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ estava satisfeito quando faleceu. Ele foi um dos Companheiros que memorizaram todo o Alcorão, e de fato Ibn cAbbad disse: "Nenhum dos khulafa' memorizou todo o Alcorão, exceto ele e al-Ma'mun." Ibn Sa'd disse: O Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ o nomeou seu representante encarregado de Madinah durante as expedições militares a Dhat ar-Riqa' e Ghatafan.

He was one of the first outstrippers (as-Sabiqun al-Awwalun), the first of the Muhajirun, one of the ten for whom it was witnessed that they were destined for the Garden, and one of the six with whom the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was pleased when he died. He was one of the Companions who memorised all of the Qur’an, and indeed Ibn cAbbad said, ‘None of the khulafa’ memorised all of the Qur’an except for him and al-Ma’mun.’ Ibn Sacd said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, appointed him as his deputy in charge of Madinah during the military expeditions to Dhat ar-Riqac and Ghatafan.

Cento e quarenta e seis hadiths dele foram narrados do Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ.

One hundred and forty-six hadith of his have been narrated from the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

Do mesmo modo, o seguinte hadith relacionado dele: Zaid ibn Khalid al-Juhani, Ibn az-Zubayr, as-Sa’ib ibn Yazid, Anas ibn Malik, Zaid ibn Thabit, Salamah ibn al-Akwac, Abu Umamah al-Bahili, Ibn cAbbas, Ibn cUmar, cAbdullah ibn Mughaffal, Abu Qatadah, Abu Hurayrah e outros Companheiros, que Allah esteja satisfeito com eles, e um grande número de outros dos Seguidores (entre eles Abban ibn cUthman, cUbaydullah ibn cAdi, Humran e outros).

The following related hadith from him: Zaid ibn Khalid al-Juhani, Ibn az-Zubayr, as-Sa’ib ibn Yazid, Anas ibn Malik, Zaid ibn Thabit, Salamah ibn al-Akwac, Abu Umamah al-Bahili, Ibn cAbbas, Ibn cUmar, cAbdullah ibn Mughaffal, Abu Qatadah, Abu Hurayrah and other Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, and a great number of others of the Followers (of them Abban ibn cUthman, cUbaydullah ibn cAdi, Humran and others).

Ibn Sa'd narrou que 'Abd ar-Rahman ibn Hatib disse: Não vi nenhum dos companheiros do Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ que, ao narrar um hadith, o narrasse de forma mais completa e mais excelente do que 'Uthman ibn 'Affan, a menos que fosse um homem que estivesse temeroso diante do hadith.

Ibn Sacd narrated that cAbd ar-Rahman ibn Hatib said: I saw none of the companions of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, who, when he narrated a hadith, narrated it more completely and more excellently than cUthman ibn cAffan, unless it was a man who was in awe of the hadith.

Ele narrou que Muhammad ibn Sirin disse que 'Uthman era o mais conhecedor deles nos ritos do Hajj, e depois dele, Ibn 'Umar.

He narrated that Muhammad ibn Sirin said that cUthman was the most knowledgeable of them in the rites of the Hajj, and then after him, Ibn cUmar.

Al-Bayhaqi narrou em sua Sunan que cAbdullah ibn cUmar ibn Abban al-Jucfi disse: Meu tio materno Hussein al-Jucfi disse: "Você sabe por que cUthman foi chamado de Possuidor das Duas Luzes?". Eu disse: "Não". Ele disse: "Desde que Allah criou Adão, ninguém se uniu a duas filhas de um profeta (nem se unirá) até que a Hora chegue, exceto cUthman, e por isso ele foi chamado de Possuidor das Duas Luzes". Abu Nucaym narrou que al-Hasan disse: "cUthman só foi chamado de Possuidor das Duas Luzes porque não se tem notícia de ninguém que tenha fechado sua porta sobre duas filhas de um profeta, além dele".

Al-Bayhaqi narrated in his Sunan that cAbdullah ibn cUmar ibn Abban al-Jucfi said: My maternal uncle Hussein al-Jucfi said, ‘Do you realise why cUthman was called the Possessor of Two Lights?’ I said, ‘No.’ He said, ‘No-one has ever been united to two daughters of a prophet since Allah created Adam (nor will be) until the Hour n rises other than cUthman, and for that reason he was called the Possessor of Two Lights.’ Abu Nucaym narrated that al-Hasan said: cUthman was only called the Possessor of Two Lights because no-one is known of who closed his door upon two daughters of a prophet other than him.

Khaythamah narrou em Fada'ilas-Sahabah e Ibn 'Asakir que 1 Ali ibn Abi Talib foi perguntado sobre 'Uthman e disse: Aquele é um homem que é chamado na Assembleia Suprema de Possuidor das Duas Luzes. Ele foi genro do Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ, com duas de suas filhas.

Khaythamah narrated in Fada'ilas-Sahabah and Ibn cAsakir that 1 Ali ibn Abi Talib was asked about cUthman and he said: That was a man who is called in the Highest Assembly the Possessor of Two Lights. He was the son-in-law of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, with two of his daughters.

Al-Malini narrou, com uma cadeia de transmissão (isnad) que apresenta alguma fraqueza, que Sahl ibn Sa'd disse: Diz-se de 'Uthman "o Possuidor das Duas Luzes" porque ele passará de uma morada para outra no Jardim, e surgirão para ele dois clarões de relâmpago, e é por essa razão que se diz isso sobre ele.

Al-Malini narrated with an isnad in which there is some weakness that Sahl ibn Sacd said: It is said about cUthman ‘the Possessor of Two Lights’ because he will pass from one abode to another in the Garden and there will gleam forth for him two flashes of lightning, and it is for that reason that is said about him.

Ele disse: Ele recebeu a kunya de Abu 'Amr na Jahiliyyah; depois, no tempo do Islã, Ruqayyah deu à luz 'Abdullah para ele, e ele tomou a sua kunya a partir dele (Abu 'Abdullah).

He said: He was given the kunyah of Abu cAmr in the Jahiliyyah, then in the time of Islam, Ruqayyah gave birth to cAbdullah for him, and he took his kunyah from him (Abu cAbdullah).

Sua mãe era Arwa bint Kurayz ibn Rabicah ibn Habib ibn cAbd Shams (ibn cAbd Manaf), e a mãe dela era Umm Hakim al-Bayda’ bint cAbd al-Muttalib ibn Hashim, que era a irmã gêmea do pai do Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ. A mãe de cUthman era filha da tia paterna do Profeta ﷺ.

His mother was Arwa bint Kurayz ibn Rabicah ibn Habib ibn cAbd Shams (ibn cAbd Manaf) and her mother was Umm Hakim al-Bayda’ bint cAbd al-Muttalib ibn Hashim and she was the twin sister of the father of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. The mother of cUthman was the daughter of the paternal aunt of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace.

Ibn Ishaq disse: Ele foi o primeiro a aceitar o Islã depois de Abu Bakr, 'Ali e Zaid ibn Harithah.

Ibn Ishaq said: He was the first to accept Islam after Abu Bakr, 'Ali and Zaid ibn Harithah.

Ibn 'Asakir relatou por várias cadeias de transmissão que 'Uthman era de estatura mediana — nem baixo, nem alto — com um rosto belo, tez clara tendendo ao avermelhado, marcas de varíola no rosto, barba cheia, de membros grandes, ombros largos, panturrilhas robustas, antebraços compridos, com cabelos cobrindo ambos os antebraços, cabelo encaracolado mas com calvície na parte da frente da cabeça, e os mais belos dentes da frente entre as pessoas. Suas madeixas caíam abaixo das orelhas, e ele as tingia de amarelo, e havia fortalecido os dentes com ouro.

Ibn cAsakir narrated by various routes that cUthman was of middle stature - he was not short, nor was he tall - with a beautiful face, a fair complexion tinged with red, on his face the marks of smallpox, with a full beard, large-limbed, broad-shouldered, plump in the shank, long in the forearms, hair covering both his forearms, curly-haired but balding to the fore of his head, the most beautiful of people in the fore-teeth, his locks fell beneath his ears and he coloured them with yellow, and he had strengthened his teeth with gold.

Ibn 'Asakir narrou que 'Abdullah ibn Hazm al-Mazini disse: Vi 'Uthman ibn 'Affan e nunca vi um homem ou uma mulher com um rosto mais belo que o dele.

Ibn cAsakir narrated that cAbdullah ibn Hazm al-Mazini said: I saw cUthman ibn cAffan and I have never seen a man or a woman! with a more beautiful face than him.

Ele narrou que Musa ibn Talhah disse: cUthman ibn cAffan era o mais belo dos homens.

He narrated that Musa ibn Talhah said: cUthman ibn cAffan was the most beautiful of people.

Ibn ʿAsākir narrou que Usāmah ibn Zayd disse: O Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ enviou-me à casa de ʿUthmān com um prato no qual havia carne. Entrei e lá estava Ruqayyah, que Allah esteja satisfeito com ela, sentada. 1

Ibn cAsakir narrated that Usamah ibn Zaid said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, sent me to cUthman’s house with a dish in which was meat. I went in, and there was Ruqayyah, may Allah be pleased with her, seated. 1

Comecei a olhar para o rosto de Ruqayyah uma vez, e outra vez para o rosto de ʿUthman. Quando voltei, o Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ me questionou e perguntou: "Você entrou na casa deles?" Eu disse: "Sim." Ele disse: "Já viu um casal mais belo do que eles?" Eu disse: "Não, Mensageiro de Allah." Ibn Saʿd narrou que Muhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn al-Harith at-Taymi disse: Quando ʿUthman bin ʿAffan abraçou o Islã, seu tio paterno, al-Hakam ibn Abi'l-ʿAs ibn Umayyah, o agarrou, amarrou-o com corda e disse: "Você deseja abandonar a religião de seus pais por uma dīn inovada? Por Allah, não o deixarei até que abandone aquilo em que você está envolvido." ʿUthman disse: "Por Allah, não o abandonarei nem o deixarei." Quando al-Hakam viu sua firmeza em sua dīn, deixou-o.

began to look at the face of Ruqayyah one time and another time at the face of cUthman. When I returned, the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, questioned me and asked me, ‘Did you go in to them?’ I said, ‘Yes.’ He said, ‘Have you seen a couple more beautiful than them?’ I said, ‘No, Messenger of Allah.’ Ibn Sacd narrated that Muhammad ibn Ibrahim ibn al-Harith at-Taymi said: When cUthman bin cAffan became a Muslim, his paternal uncle, al-Hakam ibn Abi’l-cAs ibn Umayyah took hold of him, bound him with rope, and said, ‘Do you wish to leave the religion of your fathers for an innovated deeni By Allah, I will not leave you until you give up that which you are involved in.’ cUthman said, ‘By Allah, I will not give it up nor abandon it.’ When al-Hakam saw his firmness in his deen he left him.

Abu Yacla narrou que Anas disse: O primeiro a emigrar com sua família para os abissínios foi Uthman ibn Affan. O Profeta ﷺ disse: "Que Allah esteja com os dois. Uthman é o primeiro a emigrar com sua família por causa de Allah desde Lut." Ibn Adi narrou que A'isha, que Allah esteja satisfeito com ela, disse: Quando o Profeta ﷺ casou sua filha Umm Kulthum, disse a ela: "Seu marido, de todos os homens, é o que mais se parece com seu avô Ibrahim e com seu pai Muhammad ﷺ." Ibn Adi e Ibn Asakir narraram que Ibn Umar disse: O Mensageiro de Allah ﷺ disse: "Encontramos em Uthman uma semelhança com nosso pai Ibrahim."

Abu Yacla narrated that Anas said: The first one to emigrate with his family to the Abyssinians was cUthman ibn cAffan. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘May Allah accompany the two of them. cUthman is the first to emigrate with his family for the sake of Allah since Lut.’ Ibn cAdi narrated that CA’ ishah, may Allah be pleased with her, said: When the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, married away his daughter Umm Kulthum, he said to her, ‘Your husband, of all men, is the one who most resembles your grandfather Ibrahim and your father Muhammad.’ Ibn cAdi and Ibn cAsakir narrated Ibn cUmar said: The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, ‘We find a resemblance in cUthman to our father Ibrahim.’
