5. TALHA IBN UBAYDULLAH

Talha ibn Ubaydullah ibn Uthman ibn Amr ibn Sa’d ibn Taym ibn Murra ibn Qatb ibn Lueyy ibn Galib al Qurasi at-Taymi. His patronymic was Abu Muhammad.

Talha was one of the first eight people to accept Islam and one of five people who became Muslim through Abu Bakr.

Talha was of medium height, broad-chested, broad-shouldered and had large feet. He was dark complexioned with thick hair, but his hair was neither short and curly nor long and straight. He had a smiling face with a thin nose. He did not dye his hair. He walked quickly and would turn with his whole body towards the place he was headed.

Although he did not fight at Badr, he joined many other battles. He heroically defended the Prophet at Uhud.

He was killed at the Battle of Jamal by Marwan ibn Hakam. It is estimated that he was between 60-64 years of age at the time of his death.

Talha was the Prophet Muhammad’s (pbuh) brother-in-law. Four of his wives were the sisters of the Prophet’s wives.
