Hadith 34380
٣٤٣٨٠ - حدثنا علي بن مسهر عن الأجلح عن الشعبي قال: أتي رسول اللَّه ﷺ حين افتتح خيبر فقيل له: قدم جعفر من عند النجاشي، فقال: "ما أدري بأيهما أنا أفرح، بقدوم جعفر، أو بفتح خيبر"، ثم تلقاه والتزمه وقبل ما بين عينيه (١).
Imam Shabi (may Allah have mercy on him) narrates that when the fort of Khaybar was conquered, someone came and informed the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) that Hazrat Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) had arrived from the court of Najashi. Upon this, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I do not know which of these two things brings me more happiness: the arrival of Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) or the conquest of Khaybar." Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) met him, embraced him, and kissed him on the spot between his two eyes.
