Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #27156

Ahmad ibn Mani` and Ali ibn Hajr narrated to us, saying: Sufyan ibn Uyaynah narrated to us, on the authority of Ja`far ibn Khalid, on the authority of his father, on the authority of Abdullah Ibn Ja'far, he said, when the death of Ja'far came, the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said, "Prepare food for the family of Ja'far, for something has come to them that will occupy them." Abu Issa said: This is a good hadith. Some people of knowledge liked it to be directed to the family of the dead to keep them occupied. By calamity. This is the opinion of Al-Shafi’i. Abu Issa and Ja’far bin Khalid said: He is the son of Sarah, and he is trustworthy. Ibn Jurayj narrated from him. .
