Muslim al-Qurri heardibn 'Abbas (RA) saying that Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) entered into the state of Ihram for 'Umrah and his Companions for Hajj. Neither Allah's Apostle ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) nor those among his Companions who had brought sacrificial animals with them put off Ihram, whereas the rest (of the pilgrims) did so. Talha bin 'Ubaidullah (RA) was one of those who had brought the sacrificial animals along with them so he did not put off Ihram.

This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Shu'bah with the same chain of transmitters but with this variation (of words): "Talha and another person also were among those who had not brought the sacrificial animals with them and so they put off Ihram."
