Zujajat al-Masabih 2095Volume 1

English

Sa'd ibn Ibrahim reported from his father that Abdur Rahman ibn Awf was brought food while he was fasting. He said, "Mus'ab ibn Umayr was killed, and he was better than me. He was shrouded in a cloak; if his head was covered, his feet would be exposed, and if his feet were covered, his head would be exposed. I think he also said, 'Hamzah was killed, and he was better than me.' Then the world was spread out for us, or he said, 'We were given from the world what we were given,' and we feared that our good deeds might have been hastened for us." Then he began to cry until he left the food.
