It is narrated concerning Sayyiduna Uthman bin Talhah bin Abi Talhah bin Abd al-Uzza bin Uthman bin Abd al-Dar (may Allah be pleased with him) that his mother was the daughter of Sa'd bin Shuhayd of Banu Amr bin Awf, from the people of Quba'. He embraced Islam at the same time as Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As and Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with them both), and he passed away in Makkah in the year 42 AH.

It is narrated concerning the lineage of Sayyiduna Uthman bin Talhah bin Abi Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) that his mother was Sulafah bint Sa'd. He embraced Islam before the Conquest of Makkah, at the time when Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As and Sayyiduna Khalid bin al-Walid (may Allah be pleased with them) accepted faith. He came to Madinah in Safar of the year 8 AH, and passed away in Makkah in the year 42 AH, in the time of Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him).

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) enter the Ka'bah, he (peace and blessings be upon him) together with Usamah bin Zayd, Bilal and Uthman bin Talhah (may Allah be pleased with them), and no one else went in besides them. Then Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) told me that he had asked Uthman bin Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him): Where did the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) pray inside the Ka'bah? He told him that he (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed between the two Yemeni pillars.
