Musnad Abi Ya'la 363 — he was travelling with Sayyiduna Ali and was

It is narrated from Nujayy (may Allah have mercy on him) that he was travelling with Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) and was in charge of his vessel of water for ablution. When they reached Ninawa while on their way to Siffin, Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) called out: "Be patient, O Abu Abdullah! Be patient, O Abu Abdullah, on the bank of the Euphrates!" Nujayy (may Allah have mercy on him) said: I asked: O Abu Abdullah, what is meant (by this call)? He said: "One day I went into the noble presence of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and tears were flowing from his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed eyes. I said: O Prophet of Allah, has someone grieved you? Why are your eyes shedding tears? He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: 'Rather, Jibril (peace be upon him) has just now risen from my presence, and he told me that Sayyiduna Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him) will be martyred on the bank of the river Euphrates.' Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: He (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: 'Would you like me to let you smell the soil of that (place of his killing)?' I said: Yes. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) stretched out his blessed hand, took a handful of earth and handed it to me, whereupon I could not hold back my eyes, and they overflowed with tears."
