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.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Uthman bin Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "Three things make your brother's love for you sincere: that you greet him with salam when you meet him, that you make room for him in the gathering, and that you call him by the name dearest to him." Abu al-Mutarrif Muhammad bin Abi al-Wazir is among the reliable (thiqah) and early narrators of Basrah; I do not know of any other hadith of his in which I have a high (short) chain besides this one.

It is narrated from Yahya bin Ma'in that some narrators report from Abdullah bin Malik bin Buhaynah, from his father; but this is a mistake, because his father did not narrate from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). Rather, it is Abdullah himself who saw the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and Buhaynah is the name of his mother.

It is narrated concerning Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Malik bin Buhaynah (may Allah be pleased with him) that they were allies of Banu al-Muttalib. His mother was Buhaynah bint al-Harith bin al-Muttalib bin Abd Manaf, whom his father Malik, who belonged to the tribe of Azd Shanu'ah, had married; this is why he was called "Ibn Buhaynah". Among the Tabi'in, no narrator from him is known other than Abd al-Rahman bin Hurmuz al-A'raj. Among his narrations are the hadith of the prostration of forgetfulness (sajdah al-sahw), the hadith about keeping the arms apart from the sides in prostration, and the hadith of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) being cupped at the place called Lahy Jamal. However, Imam al-Baqir and Muhammad bin Abd al-Rahman bin Thawban have also narrated from him.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Malik bin Buhaynah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) came out for the Fajr prayer, and Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) was with him. Bilal (may Allah be pleased with him) called the iqamah for the prayer, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by me and (seeing me praying the sunnah) said: "Are you praying four rak'ahs for Fajr?!"

It is mentioned in a similar report, also narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Malik bin Buhaynah (may Allah be pleased with him), that Ibn Jurayj and Sufyan al-Thawri (may Allah have mercy on them both) also narrated the hadith in the same way from Ja'far bin Muhammad.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Malik bin Buhaynah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed by him while he was standing upright (to pray the sunnah) before the Fajr prayer, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do not make this prayer like the prayers before and after Zuhr (joined directly to the obligatory prayer); rather, keep a separation between them."

It is narrated from Mus'ab bin Abdullah al-Zubayri that the mother of Sayyiduna Nafi' bin Utbah bin Malik bin Uhayb bin Abd Manaf bin Zuhrah was from the tribe of Kinanah, and her name was Zaynab bint Jabir.
