عبيد الله بن معمر

عبيد الله بن معمر

Ubayd Allah ibn Ma'mar ibn Uthman ibn Amr al-Qurashi al-Taymi. Ibn Abd al-Barr says that whoever claims he was a Companion is mistaken: he saw the Prophet, but the Prophet died while he was young. He transmitted from Umar, Uthman, Talha and other Companions; Urwa ibn al-Zubayr and Muhammad ibn Sirin transmitted from him, and the book notes that no hadith of his is sound. He was killed at the conquest of Istakhr in the time of Uthman. The heading gives 29 AH as the date. ¹
