Ameer Al-Mu’mineen Sayyiduna 'Uthman Ibn 'Affan RadiyAllahu 'Anhu was martyred on the 18th of Dhū Al-Hijjah, in the year 35 H. His Khilafah lasted 12 years.

Ibn 'Asakir reports from Ibn Thawr Al-Fahmi who said, “I went to Sayyiduna 'Uthman when he had been blockaded. He said to me, ‘I have ten qualities of myself preserved with Allah:

1. I was the fourth person to accept Islam.

2. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ gave two of his daughters in my marriage, one after the other.

3. I have never participated in music.

4. I have never concerned myself with amusement.

5. I have never desired anything bad or evil.

6. I have never touched my private parts with my right hand, after giving it to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Bay'ah.

7. I have freed a slave every Jumu'ah since I accepted Islam. If it was not possible at the time, then I freed a slave later.

8. I have never committed adultery, neither before accepting Islam nor after accepting Islam.

9. I never stole anything, before accepting Islam or after it.

10. I compiled the Qur’an according to how it was in the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.
