Imam Muhammad bin Umar narrates from his shaykhs (the summary of which is this): Abdullah bin Amr bin Haram, whose kunyah was Abu Jabir, was the father of Jabir bin Abdullah al-Salami al-Ansari. He was one of the chiefs (nuqaba') who gave the pledge on the Night of Aqabah, and he was the first Muslim to be martyred on the day of Uhud. He was martyred by Sufyan bin Abd Shams Abu al-A'war al-Sulami, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led his funeral prayer (during the battle) before the rout.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both); he said: By Allah, my father drank wine in the early morning on the day of Uhud (as it had not yet been made unlawful). Then in the morning he went to the battlefield and fought alongside the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at Uhud until he was martyred. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him): "O Jabir, shall I not give you glad tidings?" He said: "Of course, give me glad tidings; may Allah give you glad tidings of good." He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Do you know that Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, brought your father back to life and seated him before Him? Then He said: 'O My servant, ask of Me whatever you wish and I will give it to you.' He said: 'O my Lord, I could not worship You as You deserve to be worshipped. My wish is that You send me back to the world so that I may be martyred once again alongside the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).' Allah Almighty said: 'It has already been decreed by Me that you will not return to it (the world).'" This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him); he said: My father said to me: "O my dear son, I think that tomorrow, on the day of Uhud, my name will be among the first of those who are martyred. So I enjoin you to treat the daughters of Abdullah (your sisters) well." Then, when the battle took place, he was martyred that very day. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim), but they did not record it.

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that when the fighting at Uhud drew near, my father called me at night and said: "I see myself among the first of the Companions of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) who will be martyred. By Allah, after the life of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), there is no one dearer to me than you. I owe some debt, so pay it off, and treat your sisters well." Jabir said: When morning came, he was the first to be martyred. I buried him with another man in a single grave, then I was not content to leave him in a grave with someone else, so after six months I took him out of the grave, and he was exactly as he had been on the day I first laid him there, except for his ear. This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim.

Talhah bin Khirash narrates from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to me: "Indeed, Allah Almighty does not speak to anyone except from behind a veil, but He spoke to your father face to face and said: 'Wish for something from Me,'" and then he mentioned the full hadith. This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain of narration, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

Muhammad bin Umar narrates from his shaykhs that Abdullah bin Amr bin Haram (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "Before the Battle of Uhud I saw in a dream that Mubashshir bin Abd al-Mundhir was saying to me: 'You will be coming to us within a few days.' I asked: 'Where are you?' He said: 'In Paradise; we roam about in it wherever we wish.' I asked him: 'Were you not martyred on the day of Badr?' He said: 'Of course, then I was brought back to life.'" He mentioned this to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Abu Jabir, this is the glad tidings of martyrdom." An account of the virtues of Hanzalah bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), whose father Abdullah's kunyah was Abu Amir bin Abd Amr al-Ansari; he is the same Hanzalah whom the angels washed.

Ibrahim bin Ishaq narrates from his father, and he from his grandfather, that Hanzalah bin Abi Amir (may Allah be pleased with him) married and spent with his wife the night whose morning was to be the Battle of Uhud. When he had prayed the dawn prayer, Jamilah (his wife) held on to him again, so he went back to her and had relations with her, as a result of which he entered a state of major ritual impurity (janabah). Then he (having no time for the ritual bath) joined the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him).

Yahya bin Abbad bin Abdullah narrates from his father, and he from his grandfather, who said: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) speak at the time of the martyrdom of Hanzalah bin Abi Amir, when he and Abu Sufyan bin al-Harith had confronted each other and Shaddad bin al-Aswad had struck him with a sword and martyred him. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The angels are washing your companion, so ask his wife (about the reason)." She told them that when he heard the call to battle, he set out while still in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah), (without having bathed). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "That is why the angels washed him." This hadith is sahih (authentic) on the condition of Imam Muslim, but the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.

It is narrated from Zayd bin Aslam that when Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) fixed the stipends of the people, he fixed two thousand dirhams for Abdullah bin Hanzalah. Hanzalah (may Allah be pleased with him) brought a nephew of his to him, and Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) fixed a lesser amount for him. Hanzalah (may Allah be pleased with him) said: O Commander of the Believers, have you given this Ansari preference over my nephew? He replied: Yes, because on the day of Uhud I saw his father charging about with his sword (in the enemy ranks) with the same fervor with which a camel runs wild (with all its strength). The virtues of Amr bin al-Jamuh bin Zayd: he was the chief of his people and he was lame. He and his son Khallad bin Amr were martyred on the day of Uhud. The two of them had attacked the polytheists together, and when the Muslims scattered, these two stood firm and were martyred. Abu Ayman, the slave of Amr, was also martyred with them.
