On the day of Uhud we brought the martyrs to bury them (at another place), but the crier of the Prophet ﷺ came and said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ has commanded you to bury the martyrs at the place where they fell. So we took them back.  

أبو داود:٣١٦٥ – حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الأَسْوَدِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ

عَنْ نُبَيْحٍ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ كُنَّا حَمَلْنَا الْقَتْلَى يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ لِنَدْفِنَهُمْ فَجَاءَ مُنَادِي النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَقَالَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَأْمُرُكُمْ أَنْ تَدْفِنُوا الْقَتْلَى فِي مَضَاجِعِهِمْ فَرَدَدْنَاهُمْ
