Sahih Ibn Hibban 7022

Translation

✧ The Prophet ﷺ met me and said, “O Jabir, why do I see you broken-hearted?” I said, “O Messenger of Allah, my father was martyred and left behind dependents and debt.” He said, “Shall I give you glad tidings of how Allah met your father?” I said, “Yes, O Messenger of Allah.” He said, “Allah never spoke to anyone except from behind a veil, but Allah brought your father to life and spoke to him directly. He said, ‘O My servant, wish and I shall give you.’ He said, ‘Bring me back to life so that I may be killed a second time.’ Allah said, ‘I have decreed that they shall not return.’” And this verse was revealed: “Do not consider those who have been killed in the way of Allah as dead. Rather, they are alive with their Lord, receiving provision.”
