English Translation

Affan and Abd al-Samad told us, they said: Ja'far told us - the meaning is the same - Affan said in his hadith: I heard Abu Imran al-Jawni say: Abu Bakr ibn Abdullah ibn Qays told us, he said: I heard my father, while facing the enemy, say: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "The gates of Paradise are under the shades of swords." He said: A man from the people, of shabby appearance, stood up and said, "O Abu Musa, did you hear the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, say this?" He said, "Yes." He said: So he returned to his companions and said, "I bid you farewell with peace." Then he broke the sheath of his sword, and walked with his sword toward the enemy, and struck with it until he was killed.
