It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdur Rahman bin Yazid (may Allah be pleased with him): We set out with an army towards Persia. Among them were Alqamah bin Qais, Mu’addad ‘Ajli, Yazid bin Mu’awiyah Nakha’i, and Amr bin Utbah bin Firqad. We besieged a fortress. There was a sick companion with us, and a grave was dug for him. Yazid bin Mu’awiyah saw in a dream that a white goat was being buried in that grave. Then Yazid went near the fortress, and a stone struck him which killed him. We buried him in that same grave. Then Amr bin Utbah went near the fortress; he was wearing a new white cloak. He said: “How beautiful will be the sight of blood flowing on this.” Then a stone struck him as well, which killed him. Blood flowed on his cloak. We buried him. Then Mu’addad went near the fortress, and a stone struck his head. He said: “This is a small wound; Allah puts blessing even in small things.” Then he died from that wound, and we buried him.
