125 - حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، وَعَمْرُو بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ الْأَوْدِيُّ، قَالَا: حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا الصَّلْتُ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نَضْرَةَ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ طَلْحَةَ مَرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: «شَهِيدٌ يَمْشِي عَلَى وَجْهِ الْأَرْضِ»

The authenticity of this Hadith is under dispute. Shaikh Albâni considers it sound. (Silsilatul-Ahâdithus-Sahihah: 126) The Hadith foretells that he will die a martyr which is a matter of great honour. He met his martyrdom during the Battle of the Camel, which means that the believers killed in battles between the Companions are not sinners before Allâh, or else the news of his death would not have been given as a glad tiding.
