"عَنْ عَلِىٍّ قَالَ: بَيْنَا أَنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ الله ﷺ في خِبَاءٍ لأبِى طَالِبٍ إِذْ أَشْرَفَ عَلَيْنَا، فَبَصُرَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ: يَا عَمِّ أَلاَ تَنْزِلُ فَتُصَلِّى مَعَنَا؟ قَالَ: يَا بْنَ أَخِى إِنِّى لأَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ عَلَى الْحَقِّ، وَلَكِنْ أَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَسْجُدَ فَتَعْلُونِى اسْتى، وَلَكِنْ انْزِلْ يَا جَعْفَرُ فَصِلْ جَنَاحَ ابنِ عَمِّكَ، فَنَزَلَ جَعْفَرٌ فَصلى عَنْ يَسَارِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا قَضَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ صَلاَتَهُ الْتَفَتَ إِلى جَعْفَرٍ فَقَالَ: أَمَا إِنَّ الله وَصَلَكَ بِجَنَاحَيْنِ تَطِيرُ بِهِمَا في الْجَنَّةِ كَمَا وَصَلْتَ جَنَاحَ ابْنِ عَمِّكَ".

"From 'Ali, who said: While I was with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in a tent of Abu Talib, he looked down upon us, and the Prophet ﷺ saw him and said: O uncle, will you not come down and pray with us? He said: O son of my brother, I know that you are upon the truth, but I dislike that I prostrate and my buttocks rise above you. Rather, come down, O Ja'far, and join the wing of your cousin. Ja'far came down and prayed on the left of the Prophet ﷺ. When the Prophet ﷺ finished his prayer, he turned to Ja'far and said: Indeed Allah has joined you with two wings with which you fly in Paradise, just as you joined the wing of your cousin."
