Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem
Please remember the urs (anniversary) in your duas today of Hazrat Usman Ghani (Radi Allahu ta'ala anhu), the 3rd Caliph and a noble companion of Rasoolallah (Salla Allahu ta'ala 'alayhi wa Sallam)
Sayyidina Uthman (Rady Allahu Anhu) was the third Khalifa after Hadrat Umar (Rady Allahu Anhu). He was Khalifa for 12 years. He was the ambassador of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). He received the title “Ghani” meaning rich. He was given that title because he gave a lot of his wealth for Islam. He brought camels loaded with goods for the war effort. He took part in many battles with the Prophet. He was also given the title Dhun Nurain meaning possessor of two lights because he married two daughters of the beloved Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam), one after another, that is, Bibi Ruqayyah (Rady Allahu Anha) and after she passed away ,Umm Kulthum (Rady Allahu Anha). He is one of the Asharatul Mubashara meaning one of the ten who were promised Paradise by the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). He belonged to the tribe of Quraish. He did hijrah two times, first to Abyssinia, then to Madina.
The Qur’an was compiled on the instructions of Hadrat Uthman (Rady Allahu Anhu) by the companions of Prophet Muhammad (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam.), just as it was recited in the time of the Prophet (Sallallahu Alaihi Wasallam). After the Qur’an was compiled together Hadrat Uthman (Rady Allahu Anhu) made many copies of the Qur’an and distributed it to major cities. Therefore he is known as ” Jami ul Qur’an”.
One day when Hadrat Uthman (Rady Allahu Anhu) was reciting the Qur’an in his house, traitors came from behind and killed him. His blood is on the page of the Qur’an he was reciting.
He was a shaheed. He died at the age of 81. He is buried in Jannat ul Baqi.
