قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ مَرَّ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاصِ عَلَى كِلَابِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ وَهُوَ جَالِسٌ عَلَى مَجْلِسِ الْعَاشِرِ بِالْبَصْرَةِ فَقَالَ مَا يُجْلِسُكَ هَاهُنَا قَالَ اسْتَعْمَلَنِي هَذَا عَلَى هَذَا الْمَكَانِ يَعْنِي زِيَادًا فَقَالَ لَهُ عُثْمَانُ أَلَا أُحَدِّثُكَ حَدِيثًا سَمِعْتُهُ مِنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ بَلَى فَقَالَ عُثْمَانُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ كَانَ لِدَاوُدَ نَبِيِّ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام مِنْ اللَّيْلِ سَاعَةٌ يُوقِظُ فِيهَا أَهْلَهُ فَيَقُولُ يَا آلَ دَاوُدَ قُومُوا فَصَلُّوا فَإِنَّ هَذِهِ سَاعَةٌ يَسْتَجِيبُ اللَّهُ فِيهَا الدُّعَاءَ إِلَّا لِسَاحِرٍ أَوْ عَشَّارٍ فَرَكِبَ كِلاَبُ بْنُ أُمَيَّةَ سَفِينَتَهُ فَأَتَى زَيِادًا فَاسْتَعْفَاهُ فَأَعْفَاهُ حَدَّثَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ الْقَوَارِيرِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ زَيْدٍ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ قَالَ مَرَّ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَاصِ عَلَى كِلَابِ بْنِ أُمَيَّةَ فَذَكَرَ نَحْوَهُ.

He said: Yazid told us: Hammad ibn Salamah informed us: 'Ali ibn Zayd told us, from al-Hasan, who said: 'Uthman ibn Abi al-'As passed by Kilab ibn Umayyah while he was sitting at the place where the tenth (tax) was collected in Basra, and said: What has seated you here? He said: This man appointed me over this post — meaning Ziyad. 'Uthman said to him: Shall I not tell you a hadith I heard from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him? He said: Yes indeed. 'Uthman said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: David, the prophet of Allah, peace be upon him, had an hour of the night in which he would wake his family, saying: O family of David, arise and pray, for this is an hour in which Allah answers supplications, except for a sorcerer or a tax-collector. So Kilab ibn Umayyah boarded his ship and went to Ziyad and asked to be excused from the post, and Ziyad excused him. 'Ubayd Allah ibn 'Umar al-Qawariri told us: Hammad ibn Zayd told us, from 'Ali ibn Zayd, from al-Hasan, who said: 'Uthman ibn Abi al-'As passed by Kilab ibn Umayyah — and he mentioned something similar.
