It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever wishes to look at a martyr walking on the face of the earth, let him look at Talhah bin Ubaydullah." Al-Salt bin Dinar is alone in narrating this hadith, and it is not on the condition of this book.

It is narrated from Abu Habibah, the freed slave of Sayyiduna Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him): After the Battle of the Camel was over, I went with Sayyiduna Imran bin Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) to Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him). The narrator said: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) welcomed him and seated him near himself, then said: I hope that Allah will place me and your father among those about whom Allah Almighty has said: "And We shall remove whatever rancour is in their breasts; brothers, on thrones facing one another" [Surah al-Hijr: 47] . Then Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked: O my nephew! How is so-and-so, and how is so-and-so (among the women)? He also asked about his father's umm walads. Then he said: We held these lands of yours in our possession during these years only out of fear that people would plunder them. O so-and-so! Go with him to Ibn Qarazah and command him to hand over to him all the produce of these lands for these years, and the lands as well. At this, two men who were sitting in a corner, one of whom was al-Harith al-A'war, said: Allah is far more just than that. Shall we kill them and they be our brothers in Paradise? Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said angrily: Get up, both of you, and go to the farthest and most ruinous place in Allah's earth! If I and Talhah are not (the ones meant by this verse), then who is? (Then he said to Imran bin Talhah:) O my nephew! Whenever you have any need, come to us. The chain of this hadith is sahih (authentic), and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
