[Machine] Abu Al-Yasar Al-Ansari, I was sitting with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ when Abu 'Aamir Al-Ash'ari came to him and said, "I was sent on such and such a mission, and then I came to Muta. When the people lined up, Jafar rode his horse, put on his armor, took the standard, and walked until he reached the people. Then he called out, 'Who will convey this to its owner?' A man from the people said, 'I will.' So he was sent with it. Then he advanced and struck with his sword until he was killed. The eyes of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ shed tears and he prayed Dhuhr with us. Then he entered and did not speak to us. Then 'Asr was established and he went out and prayed. Then he entered and did not speak to us. He did the same for Maghrib and 'Isha. He would come to us with his face when he prayed, and he would go out to us at Fajr at the time he used to leave. Abu 'Aamir Al-Ash'ari and I were sitting. He sat between us and said, 'Shall I not tell you about a dream that I saw? I entered Paradise and I saw Jafar with two wings, stained with blood, and Zaid facing him. Ibn Rawaha was with them, as if he were turning away from them. I will tell you about that. When Jafar advanced and saw the killing, he did not turn his face away, and Zaid also did not turn his face away, and Ibn Rawaha turned his face away.'"
