The rancour which the Shia harbour for the noble Sahabah radiya Llahu `anhum needs no introduction and it is quite commonplace to find them levelling unfounded tenuous accusations against the esteemed companions and students of Rasulullah salla Llahu `alayhi wa sallam on account of their bigotry. This article answers the baseless allegations of the Shia against Sayyidina `Uthman radiya Llahu `anhu, and explains the true nature of events — in light of authentic narration — thus exposing the feeble conjecture of the Shia.
