Talha Ibn Ubaydullah رضي الله عنه (S30) Talha رضي الله عنه during the reign of the 2 Grand Shaykhs رضي الله عنهم: Umar رضي الله عنه sees Talha رضي الله عنه visibly upset and asks: “Why do I now see you uncharacteristically unkempt after The Messenger’s ﷺ passing? Is it because your cousin [Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه] has become the Khalif?”. Talha رضي الله عنه replies: “No. I of all the people would not feel this way!”. Talha رضي الله عنه explains what was bothering him was that The Messenger ﷺ said there is a word that if you recite when you are dying, your soul is removed easily, but Talha رضي الله عنه wasn’t exactly sure what that word was. Umar رضي الله عنه said he knew what it was: La Ila Ha il Allah [سُبْحَانَهُ وتَعَالَى]. Talha رضي الله عنه says you have spoken the truth, it is now as if a huge burden has been lifted off my shoulders. A huge lesson can be learnt from Talha رضي الله عنه: Do not assume when it comes to Revelation. The words of The Messenger ﷺ are not to be taken lightly and one must implement what he learns… Such is our state! What is beloved to us, the Companions رضي الله عنهم didn’t care about. What they loved, we treat as light…Talha رضي الله عنه was seen in a state of ‘spiritual depression’ over Zhikr - we treat Zhikr as a minor thing. Our depression is exclusive to worldly affairs.
