حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمِ بْنِ بَزِيعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو نُعَيْمٍ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُسْلِمٍ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ دِينَارٍ ، أَخْبَرَنِي جَابِرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، أَوْ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : رَأَى نَاسٌ نَارًا فِي الْمَقْبَرَةِ ، فَأَتَوْهَا ، فَإِذَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْقَبْرِ ، وَإِذَا هُوَ يَقُولُ : " نَاوِلُونِي صَاحِبَكُمْ " ، فَإِذَا هُوَ الرَّجُلُ الَّذِي كَانَ يَرْفَعُ صَوْتَهُ بِالذِّكْرِ .
