Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "O Messenger of Allah! On the day of Uhud, when I was held back from martyrdom, you said to me that martyrdom would come later." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "How will you be when this is dyed by this?" and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) moved his hand towards his beard and his head. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Since you have made clear to me what you have made clear, this is not a matter for patience; rather, it is a matter for glad tidings and honour."
Al-Tabarani recorded it. Its chain contains Abdullah bin Kaysan, who is da'if (weak).
