Abu Sa'id al-Khudri reported: I did not hear this badith from Allaah's Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) directly but it was Zaid b. Thibit who narrated it from him. As Allaah's Prophet (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) was going along with us towards the dwellings of Bani an-Najjar, riding upon his pony, it shied and he was about to fall. He found four, five or six graves there. He said: Who amongst you knows about those lying in the graves? A person said: It is I. Thereupon he (the Prophet) said: In what state did they die? He said: They died as polytheists. He said: These people are passing through the ordeal in the graves. If it were not the reason that you would stop burying (your dead) in the graves on listening to the torment in the grave which I am listening to, I would have certainly made you hear that. Then turning his face towards us, he said: Seek refuge with Allaah from the torment of Hell. They said: We seek refuge with Allaah from the torment of Hell. He said: Seek refuge with Allaah from the torment of the grave. They said: We seek refuge with Allali from the torment of the grave. He said: Seek refuge with Allaah from turmoil, its visible and invisible (aspects), and they said: We seek refuge with Allaah from turmoil and its visible and invisible aspects and he said: Seek refuge with Allaah from the turmoil of the Dajjal, and they said We seek refuge with Allaah from the turmoil of the Dajjal.

He then made a mention of the people of Badr to us and said: Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) showed us one day before (the actual battle) the place of death of the people (participating) in (the Battle) of Badr and he was saying: This would be the place of death of so and so tomorrow, if Allaah wills. Umar said: By Him Who sent him with truth, they did not miss the places (of their death) which Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) had pointed for them. Then they were all thrown in a well one after another. Allaah's Messenger (sallAllaahu alayhi wa sallam) then went to them and said: O, so and so, the son of so and so; O so and so, the son of so and so, have you found correct what Allaah and His Messenger had promised you? I have, however, found absolutely true what Allaah had promised with me. Umar said: Allaah's Messenger, how are you talking with the bodies without soul in them.
