وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ جَاءَتْ عَمَّتِي بِأَبِي لِتَدْفِنَهُ فِي مَقَابِرِنَا فَنَادَى مُنَادِي رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «رُدُّوا الْقَتْلَى إِلَى مَضَاجِعِهِمْ» . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالنَّسَائِيُّ وَالدَّارِمِيُّ وَلَفظه لِلتِّرْمِذِي
Translation
Jabir reported: On the day of Uhud, my paternal aunt brought my father to bury him in our cemetery. A caller of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, called out, ‘Return those killed to their resting places.’ Ahmad, al-Tirmidhi, Abu Dawud, al-Nasai, and al-Darimi transmitted it; the wording is al-Tirmidhi’s.
