Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُنْكَدِرِ، عَنْ مُعَاذِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ التَّيْمِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ، قَالَ كُنَّا مَعَ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَنَحْنُ حُرُمٌ فَأُهْدِيَ لَهُ طَيْرٌ وَطَلْحَةُ رَاقِدٌ فَمِنَّا مَنْ أَكَلَ وَمِنَّا مَنْ تَوَرَّعَ فَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ فَلَمَّا اسْتَيْقَظَ طَلْحَةُ وَفَّقَ مَنْ أَكَلَهُ وَقَالَ أَكَلْنَاهُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.
English Translation
It was narrated from Hadrat Mu`adh bin `Abdur-Rahman bin `Hadrat Uthman at-Taimi that his father ‘ Abdur-Rahman bin `Hadrat Uthman said: “We were with Hadrat Talhah bin ‘Ubaidullah (may Allah be well pleased with him) and we were in ihram. We were given a bird as a gift whilst Hadrat Talhah was sleeping. Some of us ate and some of us refrained and did not eat. When Hadrat Talhah woke up, he approved of those who had eaten it and said: “We ate it with the Beloved Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him).”
