حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَاذُ بْنُ هِشَامٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي عَنْ قَتَادَةَ قَالَ مَا نَعْلَمُ حَيًّا مِنْ أَحْيَائِ الْعَرَبِ أَکْثَرَ شَهِيدًا أَعَزَّ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مِنْ الْأَنْصَارِ قَالَ قَتَادَةُ وَحَدَّثَنَا أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِکٍ أَنَّهُ قُتِلَ مِنْهُمْ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ سَبْعُونَ وَيَوْمَ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ سَبْعُونَ وَيَوْمَ الْيَمَامَةِ سَبْعُونَ قَالَ وَکَانَ بِئْرُ مَعُونَةَ عَلَی عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَيَوْمُ الْيَمَامَةِ عَلَی عَهْدِ أَبِي بَکْرٍ يَوْمَ مُسَيْلِمَةَ الْکَذَّابِ
صحیح بخاری · Hadith 4079
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: Allah's Apostle used to shroud two martyrs of Uhud in one sheet and then say, "Which of them knew Qur'an more?" When one of the two was pointed out, he would put him first in the grave. Then he said, "I will be a witness for them on the Day of Resurrection." He ordered them to be buried with their blood (on their bodies). Neither was the funeral prayer offered for them, nor were they washed.
