Ibn Abbas Radi Allahu Anhuma ne kaha ke woh Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ke hawari thay aur unhein (Isa Alaihis Salam ke hawariyeen ko) hawariyeen in ke safed kapron ki wajah se kehte hain (baaz logon ne in ko dhobi batlaya hai).

Hum se Khalid bin Makhlad ne bayan kiya, kaha hum se Ali bin Mushir ne, in se Hisham bin Urwah ne, in se in ke walid ne bayan kiya ke mujhe Marwan bin Hakam ne khabar di ke jis saal naksir phootne ki bimari phoot padi thi is saal Uthman Radi Allahu Anhu ko itni sakht naksir phooti ke Aap hajj ke liye bhi na ja sake, aur (zindagi se mayoos ho kar) wasiyat bhi kar di, phir in ki khidmat mein Quraish ke ek sahib gaye aur kaha ke Aap kisi ko apna khaleefa bana dein. Uthman Radi Allahu Anhu ne daryaft farmaya: Kya yeh sab ki khwahish hai, unhon ne kaha ji haan. Aap ne poocha ke kise banaun? Is par woh khamosh ho gaye. Is ke baad ek doosre sahib gaye. Mera khayal hai ke woh Harith thay,. Unhon ne bhi yahi kaha ke Aap kisi ko khaleefa bana dein, Aap ne in se bhi poocha kya yeh sab ki khwahish hai? Unhon ne kaha: Ji haan, Aap ne poocha: Logon ki raaye kis ke liye hai? Is par woh bhi khamosh ho gaye, to Aap ne khud farmaya: Ghaliban Zubair ki taraf logon ka rujhan hai? Unhon ne kaha: Ji haan, phir Aap ne farmaya: Is zaat ki qasam jis ke hath mein meri jaan hai mere ilm ke mutabiq bhi rahi in mein sab se behtar hain aur bila-shubha woh Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ki nazron mein bhi in mein sab se zyada mahboob thay.

Mujh se Ubaid bin Ismail ne bayan kiya, kaha hum se Usama ne bayan kiya, in se Hisham ne, unhein in ke walid ne khabar di ke mein ne Marwan se suna ke mein Uthman Radi Allahu Anhu ki khidmat mein maujood tha ke itne mein ek sahib aaye aur kaha ke kisi ko Aap apna khaleefa bana dijiye,. Aap ne daryaft farmaya kya is ki khwahish ki ja rahi hai? Unhon ne bataya ke ji haan, Zubair Radi Allahu Anhu ki taraf logon ka rujhan hai, Aap ne is par farmaya theek hai, tum ko bhi maloom hai ke woh tum mein behtar hain, Aap ne teen martaba yeh baat doharayi.

Hum se Malik bin Ismail ne bayan kiya, unhon ne kaha hum se Abdul Aziz ne bayan kiya jo Abu Salamah ke sahib-zade thay, in se Muhammad ne bayan kiya, in se Muhammad bin Munkadir ne bayan kiya, aur in se Jabir Radi Allahu Anhu ne bayan kiya ke Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ne farmaya har nabi ke hawari hote hain aur mere hawari Zubair bin Awwam (Radi Allahu Anhu) hain.

Hum se Ahmad bin Muhammad ne bayan kiya, kaha hum ko Hisham bin Urwah ne khabar di, unhein in ke walid ne aur in se Abdullah bin Zubair Radi Allahu Anhuma ne bayan kiya ke Jang-e-Ahzab ke mauqay par mujhe aur Umar bin Abi Salamah Radi Allahu Anhuma ko aurton mein chhorh diya gaya tha (kyunke yeh dono hazrat bacche thay) mein ne achanak dekha ke Zubair Radi Allahu Anhu (Aap ke walid) apne ghore par sawar Bani Quraizah (Yahudiyon ke ek qabeele ki) taraf aa ja rahe hain. Do ya teen martaba aisa hua, phir jab mein wahan se wapas aaya to mein ne arz kiya, abba jaan! Mein ne Aap ko kai martaba aate jate dekha. Unhon ne kaha: Bete! Kya waqai tum ne bhi dekha hai? Mein ne arz kiya: Ji haan, unhon ne kaha: Rasoolullah Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ne farmaya tha ke kon hai jo Banu Quraizah ki taraf ja kar in ki (naqal-o-harkat ke mutalliq) ittela mere pas la sake. Is par mein wahan gaya aur jab mein (khabar le kar) wapas aaya to Aap Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ne (fart-e-masarrat mein) apne walidain ka ek sath zikr kar ke farmaya ke "mere maan baap tum par fida hon."

Hum se Ali bin Hafs ne bayan kiya, kaha hum se Abdullah bin al-Mubarak ne bayan kiya, kaha hum ko Hisham bin Urwah ne khabar di aur unhein in ke walid ne ke Jang-e-Yarmook ke mauqay par Nabi Kareem Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam ke Sahaba ne Zubair bin Awwam Radi Allahu Anhu se kaha Aap hamla kyun nahi karte taki hum bhi Aap ke sath hamla karein. Chunanche unhon ne in (Rumiyon) par hamla kiya. Is mauqay par unhon ne (Rumiyon ne) Aap ke do kari zakham shane par lagaye. Darmiyan mein woh zakham tha jo Badr ke mauqay par Aap ko laga tha. Urwah ne kaha ke (yeh zakham itne gehre thay ke acche ho jane ke baad) mein bachpan mein in zakhmon ke andar apni ungliyan daal kar khela karta tha.
