Seerah · Prophet's Battles and Expeditions
A man asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) during the Battle of Uhud: "If I am killed, where do you think I would be?" He replied: "In Paradise." So the man threw some dates that were in his hand and fought until he was killed
عن جابر بن عبد الله رضي الله عنهما قال رجل للنبي صلى الله عليه وسلم يومَ أُحُدٍ: أَرَأَيْتَ إن قُتِلْتُ فَأَيْنَ أَنَا؟ قال: «في الجَنَّةِ» فأَلْقَى تَمراتٍ كُنَّ في يَدِه، ثم قاتل حتى قُتِلَ.
Jābir ibn ‘Abdullāh (may Allah be pleased with him) reported: A man asked the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) during the Battle of Uhud: "If I am killed, where do you think I would be?" He replied: "In Paradise." So the man threw some dates that were in his hand and fought until he was killed.
