Nubaih bin Wahb said Umar bin Ubaid Allah bin Mamar had a complaint in his eyes. He sent (someone) to Aban bin Uthman - the narrator Sufyan said that he was the chief of pilgrims during the season of Hajj – asking him what he should do with them. He said Apply aloes to them, for I heard ‘Uthaman narrating this on the authority of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ.

The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted by Nubaih bin Wahb through a different chain of narrators.

Nubaih bin Wahb brother of Banu Abd Al Dar said Umar bin Ubaid Allah sent someone to Aban bin Uthman bin Affan asking him (to participate in the marriage ceremony). Aban in those days was the chief of the pilgrims and both were in the sacred state (wearing ihram). I want to give the daughter of Shaibah bin Jubair to Talhah bin Umar in marriage. I wish that you may attend it. Aban refused and said I heard my father Uthman bin Affan narrating a tradition from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying A pilgrim may not marry and give someone in marriage in the sacred state (while wearing ihram).

The aforesaid tradition has also been transmitted by Aban bin Uthman on the authority of Uthman from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a similar manner. This version adds “And he should not make a betrothal”
