عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ أَشْرَفَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى الشُّهَدَاءِ الَّذِينَ قُتِلُوا يَوْمَئِذٍ، فَقَالَ: ((زَمِّلُوهُمْ بِدِمَائِهِمْ فَإِنِّي قَدْ شَهِدْتُّ عَلَيْهِمْ))، فَكَانَ يُدْفَنُ الرَّجُلَانِ وَثَلَاثَةٌ فِي الْقَبْرِ الْوَاحِدِ، وَيُسْأَلُ أَيُّهُمْ كَانَ أَقْرَأَ لِلْقُرْآنِ فَيُقَدَّمُونَهُ، قَالَ: فَدُفِنَ أَبِي وَعَمِّي يَوْمَئِذٍ فِي قَبْرٍ وَاحِدٍ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, he says: On the day of Uhud, the Noble Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, turned towards the martyrs and said: Cover them with their blood, I bear witness on their behalf.)) Then two or three men were buried in a single grave, and at the time of burial it was asked which of them had memorized more of the Qur'an, and he would be placed first in the grave. Sayyiduna Jabir, may Allah be pleased with him, says: That day my father and uncle were buried in one grave.
