Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) says: On the day of Uhud, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was wearing two coats of armor. He wanted to climb a rock, but he was not able to do so. Sayyiduna Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) sat down below, and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) placed his foot on him and climbed the rock. At that time, he (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Talhah has made Paradise obligatory for himself."

Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with both of them) says that I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Whoever wishes to see a martyr walking on the face of the earth, let him look at Talhah bin Ubaidullah."

Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: I was in my chamber and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was sitting in the courtyard with his companions. There was a curtain between me and him. Sayyiduna Talha bin Ubaidullah (may Allah be pleased with him) was coming towards you. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Whoever is pleased to see a man who is walking on the earth after fulfilling his vow (of loyalty), let him look at Talha."
