Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 39755 — What I have preserved

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: I was present at Mu'tah. When we could not find Sayyiduna Ja'far bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him), we (began) to look for him among the slain. We found him in a state in which he bore wounds of spear thrusts and arrow shots. And we found all those wounds on the front part of Sayyiduna Ja'far's body.
