Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Ja'far (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed his blessed hand over my head - the narrator said: I think he said three times - and whenever he passed his hand he would say: 'Allahumma ukhluf Ja'faran fi waladih' (O Allah, be Ja'far's successor among his children). Ja'far bin Khalid has narrated two rare Sunnahs: one is passing the hand over the head of an orphan, and the other is looking after a grieving family so that they have food for the night. May Allah grant us the ability to act upon them.
