حَدَّثَنِي أُمَيَّةُ بْنُ بِسْطَامٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، عَنْ حَبِيبٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي مُلَيْكَةَ، قَالَ ابْنُ الزُّبَيْرِ قُلْتُ لِعُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَفَّانَ ‏{‏وَالَّذِينَ يُتَوَفَّوْنَ مِنْكُمْ وَيَذَرُونَ أَزْوَاجًا‏}‏ قَالَ قَدْ نَسَخَتْهَا الآيَةُ الأُخْرَى فَلِمَ تَكْتُبُهَا أَوْ تَدَعُهَا قَالَ يَا ابْنَ أَخِي، لاَ أُغَيِّرُ شَيْئًا مِنْهُ مِنْ مَكَانِهِ‏.‏

Narrated Ibn Az-Zubair:I said to `Uthman bin `Affan (while he was collecting the Qur'an) regarding the Verse:-- "Those of you who die and leave wives ..." (2.240) "This Verse was abrogated by another Verse. So why should you write it? (Or leave it in the Qur'an)?" `Uthman said. "O son of my brother! I will not shift anything of it from its place

Ibn Az-Zubair bataate hain: Maine Uthman bin Affan se (jab wo Quran jama kar rahe the) is Aayat ke baare mein kaha: 'Jo tum mein se wafat pa jaayein aur biwiyaan chhod jaayein...' (2:240) 'Ye Aayat ek doosri Aayat se mansookh ho chuki hai, to phir aap ise (Quran mein) kyun likh rahe hain?' Uthman ne kaha, 'Aye mere bhatije! Main Quran ki kisi cheez ko uski jagah se nahi hataaunga.'
