It is narrated from Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the day of the Battle of Uhud, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) took a sword in his hand and said: Who will take this sword? People began to look at it and examine it, then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Who is there who will take it and fulfill its right? So the people stepped back. Sayyiduna Abu Dujana Simak (may Allah be pleased with him) said: I will take it and fulfill its right. Thus, he began to strike off the heads of the polytheists.

It is narrated from Sa’ib bin Yazid that on the day of Uhud, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing two coats of mail, one over the other.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), he says: I heard that when the martyrs of Uhud were mentioned, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) would say: By Allah! I wish that I too were buried with them at the foot of the mountain.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, that when the martyrs of Uhud were being taken from there towards Madinah Munawwarah, a proclaimer from the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, made an announcement that these slain ones should be brought back to their place, that is, the field of Uhud.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) that when my father was martyred on the day of Uhud, my sisters gave me a camel and said, "Go and bring our father's body on it and bury him in the graveyard of Banu Salamah." I and my helpers reached there, but when Allah's Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was informed of our plan, he called for me while he was still present at the place of Uhud. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "By the One in Whose hand is my soul! He will be buried with his fellow martyrs." And so it happened that he was buried with the other martyrs at Uhud.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered regarding the martyrs of Uhud that the iron and leather garments be removed from their bodies and that they be buried with their blood and clothes.
