Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ حُمَيْدِ بْنِ هِلاَلٍ، عَنْ أَنَسٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَعَى زَيْدًا وَجَعْفَرًا قَبْلَ أَنْ يَجِيءَ خَبَرُهُمْ فَنَعَاهُمْ وَعَيْنَاهُ تَذْرِفَانِ .
Translation
Ishaq informed us: Sulayman ibn Harb informed us: Hammad ibn Zayd narrated to us, from Ayyub, from Humayd ibn Hilal, from Anas, that the Messenger of Allah announced the deaths of Zayd and Ja‘far before news of them arrived. He announced their deaths while his eyes were shedding tears.
