It has been reported on the authority of Abu Zubair who heard Jabir bin'Abdullah (RA) say: I fought in the company of the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) nineteen battles. Jabir said: I did not participate in the Battle of Badr and the Battle of Uhud. My father prevented me (from participating in these battles as my age was tender). After 'Abdullah (my father) was killed on the Day of Ubud, I never lagged behind the Messenger of Allah ( صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم ) and joined every battle (he fought).
