Musnad Ahmad 648

Translation

✧ He traveled with 'Ali and was in charge of his water container. When he came to Nineveh while heading to Siffin, 'Ali called out: 'Be patient, Abu 'Abd Allah; be patient, Abu 'Abd Allah, at the bank of the Euphrates.' I said: What is that? He said: I entered upon the Prophet ﷺ one day while his eyes were overflowing. I said: O Prophet of God, has someone angered you? What is the matter with your eyes overflowing? He said: 'Rather, Jibril left me a while ago and told me that al-Husayn will be killed at the bank of the Euphrates.' He said: Then he said: 'Would you like me to let you smell some of his earth?' I said: Yes. So he stretched out his hand, took a handful of earth, and gave it to me. I could not control my eyes from overflowing.
