Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) says: On the day of Uhud a man was buried along with my father. My heart was not at ease with it, so I took him out from there and buried him separately. Imam al-Bukhari (may Allah have mercy on him) reported: Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I took him out after six months, and he was just as he had been when he was laid there, except for his ear.
