Ahmad bin Ya'qub informed us; he said: Musa bin Zakariyya narrated to us; he said: Khalifah bin Khayyat told us that: Salman bin Amir bin Aws bin Hujr bin Amr bin al-Harith bin Taym bin Dhuhl bin Malik bin Bakr bin Sa'd bin Dabbah settled in Basrah. He had a house next to the Jami' Mosque, and it was there that he died during the caliphate of Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him).
