[Machine] "If you were to see me, Qutham and 'Ubaidullah ibn 'Abbas, we were children playing when the Prophet ﷺ passed by on an animal. He said, 'Lift this up to me.' So, I carried him in front of him, and he said to Qutham, 'Lift this up to me.' So, he placed him behind him. And 'Ubaidullah was more beloved to 'Abbas than Qutham. So, he felt shy of his uncle and carried Qutham instead. He then wiped his hand over my head three times and said, 'Whenever Allah wipes, let Ja'far be the successor in his child.' I said to 'Abdullah, 'What happened to Qutham?' He said, 'He was martyred.' I said, 'Allah knows best about the good, and His Messenger knows best about the good.' He said, 'Yes.'"

[Machine] "If you had seen me, Qatham and Ubaidullah ibn Abbas playing when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by on a mount, and he said, 'Bring this to me.' He made me stand in front of him, and then he said to Qatham, 'Bring this to me.' He made him stand behind him. Abbas, his uncle, was too shy to carry Qatham, so he left him and wiped my head three times. When he finished wiping, he said, 'O Allah, replace Jafar with him in his offspring.' I asked Abdullah ibn Jafar, 'What happened to Qatham?' He said, 'He was martyred.' I said to Abdullah, 'Allah and His Messenger knew better about his news.' He said, 'Yes.'"

[Machine] "If you had seen me, Qutham, and Ubaidullah ibn al-Abbas when we were children, playing, and then the Messenger of Allah passed by riding a beast. He said, 'Bring this to me.' So he placed me in front of him and said, 'Bring this to Qutham.' So he placed him behind him without being shy of his uncle al-Abbas. And Ubaidullah was more beloved to him than Qutham. Then he wiped my head three times and said, 'O Allah, bless Jafar and his family.' I said, 'What happened to Qutham?' He said, 'He was martyred.' I said, 'Allah and His Messenger know best.'

[Machine] If you had seen me, Qutham, and Ubaydullah ibn al-Abbas playing when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by on a mount, he said, "Bring this to me." He placed me in front of him and then said to Qutham, "Bring this to me." He placed him behind him. Al-Abbas did not hesitate to carry Qutham while leaving Ubaydullah. Then he wiped my head three times, and every time he wiped, he said, "O Allah, provide Ja'far with a successor through his child." I asked Abdullah ibn Ja'far, "What did Qutham do?" He said, "He was martyred." I said to Abdullah, "Allah and His Messenger knew best about what is right." He said, "Yes."
