Hadhrat Su’da ا ر the wife of Hadhrat Talha τ reports that she once came to Hadhrat Talha τ and found him to be extremely distressed. She asked, “Why are you so distressed? Have we caused this grief to overcome you?” He replied, “By Allaah! You have caused me no distress at all. You are a most excellent wife. It is some money that has collected with me (that I am concerned about).” Hadhrat Su’da ا ر reports further. She says, “I advised him to send for his family and his tribe and to distribute it amongst them. After he had done so, I asked the treasurer how much money there was. He informed me that it amounted to four hundred
thousand. His daily earnings amounted to a thousand Waafi (approximately 1666 Dirhams) and he was given the title of Talha Fayyaadh (The Very Generous).”
Hadhrat Mas’ood bin Khiraash τ narrates, “While we were walking between Safa and Marwa, we saw a large group of people following a young man whose arm was in a sling around his neck. When I asked who the man was, I was told that he was Talha bin Ubaydillaah who had accepted Islaam. Behind him was a woman who was furious and swearing him. When I asked who the woman was, was informed that she was his mother Sa’ba bint Khadrami.”
