Narrated Abdullah ibn Umar: The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم stood up, i. e. on the day of Badr, and said: Uthman has gone off on the business of Allah and His Messenger, and I shall take the oath of allegiance on his behalf. The Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم then allotted him a share, but did not do so for anyone else who was absent.
