Ubaydullah bin Abdullah bin Utbah narrates: I went with Uthman bin Hunayf (may Allah be pleased with him) to visit Abu Talhah (may Allah be pleased with him) in his illness. We saw that a carpet bearing images was spread beneath him. When we sat down, he said: "Remove this from beneath us." Uthman said to him: "Did you not hear the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) forbidding images, except what is a design on cloth?" He said: "Certainly, but I dislike it." So it was removed.
