مسند امام احمد بن حنبل · Hadith 1401
It was narrated from 'Abdullah bin Shaddad that three people from Banu 'Udhrah came to the Prophet (PBUH) and became Muslim. The Prophet (PBUH) said: "Who will take care of them?" Talha said: I will. So they stayed with Talha. The Prophet (PBUH) sent out an expedition and one of (these three men) went on that expedition and was martyred. Then he sent out an expedition, and another of them went on that expedition and was martyred. Then the third one died in his bed. Talha said: I dreamt that these three people who had stayed with me were in Paradise, and 1 saw the one who had died in his bed was ahead of them. I saw the one who was martyred last next to him, and I saw the one who was martyred first at the back. I was confused about that so I went to the Prophet (PBUH) and told him about that. The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: "What did you find so strange about that? No one is better before Allah then a believer who lives longer as a Muslim, because of his tasbeeh, takbeer and tahleel."
