[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ sent a mission to Mu'ta in Jumada al-Ula in the eighth year and he appointed Zaid ibn Harithah as their leader. He said to them, "If Zaid is killed, then Ja'far ibn Abi Talib will take charge of the people. And if Ja'far is killed, then Abdullah ibn Rawahah will be in charge of the people."
بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَعْثًا إِلَى مُؤْتَةَ فِي جُمَادَى الْأُولَى مِنْ سَنَةِ ثَمَانٍ وَاسْتَعْمَلَ زَيْدَ بْنَ حَارِثَةَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ «إِنْ أُصِيبَ زَيْدٌ فَجَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ عَلَى النَّاسِ فَإِنْ أُصِيبَ جَعْفَرٌ فَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ عَلَى النَّاسِ»
