Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 34373 — Reports on Jafar bin Abi Talib

Abu Maysarah said: When the news of the martyrdom of Sayyiduna Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna Zayd and Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him) reached the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) mentioned them and then supplicated in this way: "O Allah, forgive Zayd," saying it three times, "O Allah, forgive Ja'far, and Abdullah bin Rawahah as well."
