Musnad Ahmad 182

Translation

✧ We were with Umar between Makkah and Madinah, and we tried to sight the new moon. I had sharp eyesight, and I saw it. I kept saying to Umar, 'Do you not see it?' He said, 'I will see it while I am lying on my bed.' Then he began telling us about the people of Badr. He said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to show us their places of death the day before, saying, "This is the place where so-and-so will fall tomorrow, if Allah [the Exalted] wills, and this is the place where so-and-so will fall tomorrow, if Allah [the Exalted] wills."' He said, 'They fell on those very spots.' He said, 'I said: By the One who sent you with the truth, they did not miss those spots; they fell on them.' Then he ordered that they be thrown into a well. He went to them and said, 'O so-and-so, O so-and-so, have you found what your Lord promised you to be true? Indeed, I have found what my Lord promised me to be true.' Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, do you speak to people who have become corpses?' He said, 'You are no more able to hear what I say than they are, but they cannot respond.'
