that the Messenger of Allah announced the news of the death of Zaid and Ja'far before news of them came. He announced their death and his eyes were overflowing with tears. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1878)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «نَعَى زَيْدًا وَجَعْفَرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَجِيءَ خَبَرُهُمْ نَعَاهُمْ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ»
the Messenger of Allah had told them of the death of An-Najashi, the ruler of Ethiopia, on the day that he died, and he said: "Pray for forgiveness for your brother." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1879)
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَعَى لَهُمُ النَّجَاشِيَّ صَاحِبَ الْحَبَشَةِ الْيَوْمَ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ وَقَالَ «اسْتَغْفِرُوا لِأَخِيكُمُ»
