Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: The people said: "O Messenger of Allah, your freed slave so-and-so has been martyred." The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Not at all! I saw on him a cloak that he took by embezzlement on such-and-such an occasion."
Ahmad and Abu Ya'la recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Abu al-Mukhayyis, who is majhul (unknown).
