Talha Ibn Ubaydullah رضي الله عنه (S9) Why did Nawfal target Abu Bakr and Talha? رضي الله عنهم. Zubayr’s رضي الله عنه father, al-Awaam was the brother of Nawfal (thus the brother of Khadija رضي الله عنها also!). al-Awaam passed away early thus Nawfal was the caretaker of Zubayr رضي الله عنه. When Nawfal found out he embraced Islam he put Zubayr رضي الله عنه in a straw mat and placed fire underneath to choke him. Nawfal told him to leave Islam, Zubayr رضي الله عنه didn’t budge, even though he was ~8 years old! Nawfal thus targeted Abu Bakr and Talha رضي الله عنهم as they were the ones who told Zubayr رضي الله عنه of Islam. Talha رضي الله عنه is returning from a business trip and runs into The Messenger ﷺ and Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه who were performing the Hijrah! Talha رضي الله عنه dresses them in Syrian garments and he himself goes to Makkah to sort things final. Talha رضي الله عنه performs Umrah when he returns to Makkah despite the dangerous circumstances in Makkah. Zayd Ibn al Haaritha, Abu Rafi,
