Sitting Down When Calamity Strikes
Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ يَحْيَى بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ عَمْرَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ لَمَّا قُتِلَ زَيْدُ بْنُ حَارِثَةَ وَجَعْفَرٌ وَعَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ رَوَاحَةَ جَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الْمَسْجِدِيُعْرَفُ فِي وَجْهِهِ الْحُزْنُ وَذَكَرَ الْقِصَّةَ
Translation

When Zaid b. Harithah, Ja'far and 'Abd Allah b. Rawahah were killed, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) sat down in the mosque and grief was visible in his face. Then he (the narrator) mentioned the rest of the tradition.
