حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ ثنا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ جَدِّي عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ

كَانَتْ رِحْلَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَطِيبُهُ إِلَيَّ فَأَتَاهُ رَجُلٌ يَسْأَلُهُ أَحَدَهُمَا فَقَالَ «ذَاكَ إِلَى طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ» فَأَتَانِي فَأَعْلَمَنِي فَأَبَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَعَادَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَسَأَلَهُ فَرَدَّ عَلَيْهِ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَأَتَانِي فَأَعْلَمَنِي فَأَبَيْتُ عَلَيْهِ فَرَجَعَ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ وَقَالَ مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ فَرَجَعَ إِلَيَّ فَقُلْتُ فِي نَفْسِي مَا بَعَثَهُ إِلَيَّ إِلَّا وَهُوَ يُحِبُّ أَنْ يَقْضِيَ حَاجَتَهُ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَا يَكَادُ يُسْأَلُ شَيْئًا إِلَّا فَعَلَهُ فَقُلْتُ لَأَنْ أَلِيَ بَشَرَةَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَحَبُّ إِلَيَّ مِنْ أَنْ أَلِيَ رِحْلَتَهُ فَدَفَعْتُهَا إِلَيْهِ فَأَرَادَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَفَرًا فَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُرْحَلَ لَهُ فَأَتَانِي فَقَالَ أَيُّ الرِّحْلَتَيْنِ كَانَتْ أَحَبَّ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ؟ فَقُلْتُ الطَّائِفِيَّةُ فَرَحَّلَهَا لَهُ ثُمَّ قَرَّبَهَا إِلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا ثَارَتْ بِهِ انكبَّتْ فَقَالَ «مَنْ رَحَّلَ هَذَا؟» قَالُوا فُلَانٌ فَقَالَ «رُدُّوهَا إِلَى طَلْحَةَ» فَرُدَّتْ إِلَيَّ قَالَ طَلْحَةُ وَاللهِ مَا غَشَشْتُ أَحَدًا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ غَيْرَهُ لِكَيْ تَرْجِعَ إِلَيَّ رِحْلَةُ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ

✧ The mount and perfume of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were in my charge. A man came to him asking for one of them, and he said: “That is up to Talhah b. ‘Ubayd Allah.” The man came to me and informed me, but I refused him. He returned to the Prophet ﷺ and asked him, and he replied to him with the same thing. He came to me and informed me, but I refused him. He went back to the Prophet ﷺ and said the same thing, then returned to me. I said to myself: He would not have sent him to me unless he wanted his need to be fulfilled. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was hardly ever asked for something without doing it. I said: That I should take charge of the Prophet’s own saddle is dearer to me than that I should take charge of his mount. So I handed it over to him. The Prophet ﷺ then intended to travel and ordered that a mount be saddled for him. He came to me and said: Which of the two saddles was dearer to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ? I said: The one from Ta’if. So he saddled it for him, then brought it close to him. When it bolted with him, it stumbled, and he said: “Who saddled this?” They said: So-and-so. He said: “Return it to Talhah.” So it was returned to me. Talhah said: By Allah, I did not deceive anyone in Islam except him, so that the saddle of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would come back to me.
