It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: I heard with my own ears from the blessed mouth of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), as he (peace and blessings be upon him) was saying: "Talhah and al-Zubayr are my neighbours in Paradise." The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Sa'id al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "Do not revile the disciples (devoted companions) of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), for the expiation for (insulting) them is death." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates from his father (Sayyiduna al-Zubayr, may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) sent me (on an errand) on a very cold morning. When I came (back) to him (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) was under a single quilt with one of his pure wives. He (peace and blessings be upon him) brought me into the same quilt as well, and we became three (under one quilt). The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Zubayr bin al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man from the Ansar brought a case against me before the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) concerning (the water of) the streams of the Harrah. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Zubayr! Irrigate (your land), then release the water to your neighbour." At this the Ansari said: O Messenger of Allah! (Did you judge this way) because he is the son of your paternal aunt? The blessed face of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) changed colour (in anger), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Zubayr! Irrigate (your land) until the water reaches the embankments, then release the water to your neighbour." Thus the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) gave Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) his full right. Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) says: It is my belief that this verse, "But no, by your Lord! (O Prophet), they will not be believers until they make you judge concerning the disputes between them." [Surah al-Nisa: 65] , was revealed concerning this very case of mine. The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), but the two Shaykhs did not record it. I do not know of anyone who established this chain in this way from Imam al-Zuhri, mentioning Abdullah bin al-Zubayr, other than his nephew, and this narration from him is narrow (in terms of its chain).
