أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَاصِمٍ عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ عَنْ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ خَالِدِ بْنِ سَارَةَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ
لَوْ رَأَيْتَنِي أَنَا وَقُثَمَ وَعُبَيْدَ اللهِ ابْنَيِ الْعَبَّاسِ وَنَحْنُ صِبْيَانِ نَلْعَبُ إِذْ مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى دَابَّةٍ فَقَالَ «ارْفَعُوا إِلَيَّ هَذَا» فَجَعَلَنِي أَمَامَهُ وَقَالَ «ارْفَعُوا هَذَا لِقُثَمَ» فَجَعَلَهُ خَلْفَهُ وَلَمْ يَسْتَحِي مِنْ عَمِّهِ الْعَبَّاسِ وَكَانَ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ أَحَبَّ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ قُثَمَ قَالَ ثُمَّ مَسَحَ عَلَى رَأْسِي ثَلَاثًا ثُمَّ قَالَ «اللهُمَّ اخْلُفْ جَعْفَرًا فِي أَهْلِهِ» قَالَ قُلْتُ مَا فَعَلَ قُثَمُ؟ قَالَ اسْتُشْهِدَ قُلْتُ اللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ كَانَ أَعْلَمَ بِالْخَيْرِ قَالَ أَجَلْ

✧ If only you had seen me, Qutham, and Ubayd Allah, the two sons of al-Abbas, when we were boys playing, when the Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by on a mount and said, "Lift this one up to me." He placed me in front of him and said, "Lift this one up for Qutham." He placed him behind him, and he did not feel shy before his uncle al-Abbas, though Ubayd Allah was dearer to him than Qutham. He said: Then he wiped over my head three times and said, "O Allah, be a successor for Ja'far in his family." I said, "What happened to Qutham?" He said, "He was martyred." I said, "Allah and His Messenger know best about the good." He said, "Yes."
