Speeches of Uthman
As Caliph Uthman had to deliver frequent addresses. No record of such addresses has been preserved. Only some stray remarks of Uthman here and there have come down to us. It appears that Uthman was a man of few words, but whenever he spoke his words were surcharged with wisdom. Hereunder we present some of the sayings of Uthman by way of sample.

"When a person dies, his works end, except for three: ongoing charity, knowledge that is benefited from, and a righteous child who prays for him."
Prophet Mohammed (PBUH)
"The best of what a man leaves behind are three: a righteous child who supplicates for him, ongoing charity the reward of which reaches him, and knowledge that is acted upon after him."
Sunan Ibn Mājah
"Every day two angels come down from Heaven and one of them says, 'O Allah! Compensate every person who spends in Your Cause,' and the other (angel) says, 'O Allah! Destroy every miser.'"
