Othman Ebn Affan became a valued man. Especially after Al Hijra because of his good behaviors and his good manners, in addition to his situations that clearly illustrate his love to Islam and Muslims. His value and position among Muslims continued to grow day by day, especially that the Prophet Mohammed peace be upon him trusted him very much and considered him a main pillar for the Muslim society. One day Muslims planned to go for Umrah in Makkah and the men gathered for this purpose. When Muslims arrived to the boarders of Makkah, its people refused to let Muslims enter the city to perform Umrah. The Prophet told Omar Ebn Al Khattab "go to the leaders of Makkah and tell them that Muslims came for Umrah and not for a war", but Omar Ebn Al Khattab replied "O Prophet, you know I would do anything you say, but you know how much the people of Makkah hate me, so if I entered Makkah, they will kill me instantly and I won't be able to deliver your massage. I suggest that you send Othman Ebn Affan." http://muslim-academy.com/othman-ebn-affan-5/

As I mentioned before, Othman Ebn Affan converted to Islam in its early stages, as he went to the Prophet Mohammed peace be upon him and the Prophet said "O Othman, Allah invites you to his Jannah (Heaven) and you need to respond, as I find you a wise man", so Othman suddenly said the testimony and entered Islam. After this situation it was normal to see a lot of people in Kurysh and in Othman's family, starting to fight him and work hard to force him leave Islam.
