The Ruling on One Who Accuses Musa (peace be upon him) or Criticizes the Caliphate of 'Uthman

Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on one who accuses Musa (peace and blessings be upon him) of being capricious, and likewise one who characterizes the caliphate of 'Uthman ibn 'Affan as a gap?
Answer:
The one who speaks ill of the Messenger Musa (peace and blessings be upon him), that is apostasy. If one disparages any of the prophets, that is apostasy from the religion of Islam. And the one who speaks ill of the caliphate of 'Uthman, that is a misguidance, a misguidance that leads others astray, because the caliphate of 'Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) was a righteous caliphate, and he was the third of the Rightly Guided Caliphs. This is misguidance, and I seek refuge in Allah.
