Talha b. 'Ubayd Allah: Difference between revisions

==His Place for Sunni Muslims==

Talha is highly venerated by [[Sunni]] Muslims. They consider him as one of "'Ashara Mubashshara" (ten people to whom the Prophet (s) gave the good news of going to the Heaven). They also characterize him as "Talha al-Khayr" (Talha, the good), "Talha Fayyad" (Talha, the beneficent) and one of the 20 [[Sahaba]] who could issue [[fatwa]]s. He is also a prominent narrator of [[hadiths]] from the [[Prophet (s)]] from whom people such as his sons (Yahya and Musa), Qays b. Abu Hazim, [[Abu Salama b. 'Abd al-Rahman]] and Malik b. Abu 'Amir narrated hadiths. Sunni Muslims take Talha to be among the Twelve Disciples of the Prophet (s) along with [[Hamza b. 'Abd al-Muttalib]], [[Ja'far b. Abi Talib]], [['Ali b. Abi Talib (a)]], [[Abu Bakr]], [['Umar b. al-Khattab]], [[Abu 'Ubayda al-Jarrah]], [['Uthman b. 'Affan]], [['Uthman b. Maz'un]], [['Abd al-Rahman b. 'Awf]], [[Sa'd b. Abi Waqqas]], and [[al-Zubayr b. 'Awwam]].
