حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ حَنْبَلٍ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثنا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَعْقُوبَ عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرٍ قَالَ

بَعَثَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَيْشًا وَاسْتَعْمَلَ عَلَيْهِمْ زَيْدَ بْنَ حَارِثَةَ «فَإِنْ قُتِلَ وَاسْتُشْهِدَ فَأَمِيرُكُمْ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَإِنْ قُتِلَ وَاسْتُشْهِدَ فَأَمِيرُكُمْ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ» فَانْطَلَقُوا فَلَقُوا الْعَدُوَّ فَأَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ زَيْدُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ جَعْفَرُ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَفَتَحَ اللهُ ﷻ عَلَيْهِ فَأَتَى خَبَرُهُمُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَخَرَجَ فَحَمِدَ اللهَ وَأَثْنَى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَإِنَّ إِخْوَانَكُمْ لَقُوا الْعَدُوَّ فَأَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ زَيْدُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ أَوِ اسْتُشْهِدَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ جَعْفَرٌ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ أَوِ اسْتُشْهِدَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ فَقَاتَلَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ أَوِ اسْتُشْهِدَ ثُمَّ أَخَذَ الرَّايَةَ سَيْفٌ مِنْ سُيُوفِ اللهِ خَالِدُ بْنُ الْوَلِيدِ فَفَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَيْهِ» ثُمَّ أَمْهَلَ آلَ جَعْفَرٍ ثَلَاثًا أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُمْ ثُمَّ أَتَاهُمْ فَقَالَ «لَا تَبْكُوا عَلَيْهِ بَعْدَ الْيَوْمِ» ثُمَّ قَالَ «ادْعُوا بَنِي أَخِي» فَجِيءَ بِنَا كَأَنَّا أَفْرُخٌ فَقَالَ «ادْعُوا لِي الْحَلَّاقَ» فَأَمَرَهُ فَحَلَقَ رُءُوسَنَا ثُمَّ قَالَ «أَمَّا مُحَمَّدٌ فَشَبِيهُ عَمِّنَا أَبِي طَالِبٍ وَأَمَّا عَوْنُ فَشَبِيهُ خَلْقِي وَخُلُقِي» ثُمَّ أَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَشَالَها فَقَالَ «اللهُمَّ أَخْلِفْ جَعْفَرًا فِي أَهْلِهِ وَبَارِكْ لِعَبْدِ اللهِ فِي صَفْقَةِ يَمِينِهِ» قَالَهَا ثَلَاثَ مَرَّاتٍ قَالَ فَجَاءَتْ أُمُّنَا فَذَكَرَتْ يُتْمَنَا فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الْعَيْلَةَ تَخَافِينَ عَلَيْهِمْ وَأَنَا وَلِيُّهُمْ فِي الدُّنْيَا وَالْآخِرَةِ»

Translation

Chain of narrators
  1. ʿAbdullāh b. Aḥmad b. Ḥanbal from my father
  2. Wahbb. Jarīr from his father
  3. Muḥammad b. ʿAbdullāh b. Abū Yaʿqūb
  4. al-Ḥasan b. Saʿd
  5. ʿAbdullāh b. Jaʿfar

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ dispatched an army and appointed Zayd b. Harithah over them, saying, “If he is killed or martyred, your commander is Ja‘far b. Abi Talib; and if he is killed or martyred, your commander is ‘Abd Allah b. Rawahah.” They set out and met the enemy. Zayd b. Harithah took the banner and fought until he was killed. Then Ja‘far b. Abi Talib took the banner and fought until he was killed. Then ‘Abd Allah b. Rawahah took the banner and fought until he was killed. Then Khalid b. al-Walid took the banner, and Allah ﷻ granted victory through him. Their news reached the Prophet ﷺ, and he came out, praised Allah, and extolled Him, then said: “To proceed: your brothers met the enemy. Zayd b. Harithah took the banner and fought until he was killed or martyred. Then Ja‘far took the banner and fought until he was killed or martyred. Then ‘Abd Allah b. Rawahah took the banner and fought until he was killed or martyred. Then a sword among the swords of Allah, Khalid b. al-Walid, took the banner, and Allah granted victory through him.” Then he gave the family of Ja‘far three days before coming to them. Then he came to them and said, “Do not weep for him after today.” Then he said, “Bring me the sons of my brother.” We were brought to him as if we were chicks. He said, “Call the barber for me,” and ordered him, and he shaved our heads. Then he said, “As for Muhammad, he resembles our uncle Abu Talib; and as for ‘Awn, he resembles my physical appearance and character.” Then he took my hand and raised it, saying, “O Allah, be a successor for Ja‘far in his family, and bless ‘Abd Allah in the transaction of his right hand.” He said it three times. Then our mother came and mentioned our orphanhood. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, “Do you fear poverty for them while I am their guardian in this world and the Hereafter?”
