Umm Mansur says: It is narrated from a woman of Banu Sulaym, from whom most of the children in our house were born, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, sent a message to Sayyiduna Uthman bin Talha, may Allah be pleased with him. In one narration, it is mentioned: They asked Sayyiduna Uthman bin Talha, may Allah be pleased with him, why the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, had called him. He said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said to me: I saw the horns of a ram inside the House of Allah (Baytullah), and I forgot to instruct you to cover them, so now cover them, because it is not appropriate that there should be anything in the House of Allah that distracts the worshipper. Imam Sufyan said: Those two horns of the ram remained in the House of Allah until the House of Allah caught fire, and then they too were burnt.
