Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39748 — What I have preserved

It is narrated from Salim bin Abi al-Ja'd that the martyrs of Mu'tah were shown to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in a dream. He (peace and blessings be upon him) saw Sayyiduna Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with him) in the form of an angel with two wings, smeared with blood, and he (peace and blessings be upon him) saw Sayyiduna Zayd (may Allah be pleased with him) opposite him on a throne. The narrator said: And Ibn Rawahah (may Allah be pleased with him) was sitting with them, as though they were turning away from him.
