Mukhtasar Muslim (Abridged) 1688 — Virtues of Abdullah ibn Ja'far ibn

Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) says that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) would return from a journey, he would meet the people. Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far says that once he met me and Hasan or Husayn (may Allah be pleased with them), so the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) seated one of us in front of him and one behind him, until we came to Madinah.

`Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) says that` the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) seated me behind him one day and softly said something to me which I will not relate to anyone.
