Bassam Zawadi's stumbling block Bukari Vol 6,Book 60, Number 53

Bukhari Volume 6, Book 60, Number 53:

Narrated Ibn Az-Zubair:

I said to 'Uthman bin 'Affan (while he was collecting the Qur'an) regarding the Verse:-- "Those of you who die and leave wives ..." (2.240) "This Verse was abrogated by an other Verse. So why should you write it? (Or leave it in the Qur'an)?" 'Uthman said. "O son of my brother! I will not shift anything of it from its place


For Uthman what was abrogated, wasn't removed altogether, it stayed in it's place.

Another translation reads: He replied, “O my nephew, I will not remove anything from its original place.

Notice what Bassam writes into the text, because he can clearly see this Hadith refutes the notion that Uthman on certian circumstances left out the Quran abrogated verses.

Bassam writes: "The man was basically asking “if it’s ruling is not applicable anymore, why keep it written down then?”, so Uthman basically replied back saying that he won’t move anything from its place (unless there is evidence to do so"). 

 What is interesting the Hadith doesn't narrate Uthman saying he won't move anything from its place unless there is evidence. Bassam simply added this to the narration which was very deceptive of Bassam.

We challenge Bassam to demostrate a Hadith which Uthman claims he won’t move anything from its place unless there is evidence to do so?  

Derek writes:  "Zawadi’s methodology is simple in his debate and in his articles; usually whenever someone points out a verse is missing in the Quran according to certain authentic hadith narrations Zawadi then passes it off as an “abrogation of recitation and ruling” or “abrogation of reciting but not ruling"

Derek also writes:"In the first place it's noteworthy to mention that Uthman the compiler of the Quran himself had not heard of these concepts. For him what was abrogated, wasn't removed altogether, it stayed in it's place"

 Intil Bassam provides evidence to his claim we will not be responding to Bassam. This is Hadith is the stumbling block for Bassam.
