Riyad as-Salihin — Hadith #46452

On the authority of Jabir bin Abdullah, may God be pleased with him, on the authority of them, he said: When I was present at Uhud, my father called me in the night and said: He only saw me killed among the first of the Companions of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, to be killed, and I will not leave after me anyone dearer to me than you except the soul of the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace. I have a debt, so pay it off, and be kind to your sisters. So we arrived in the morning, and he was the first to be killed, and I buried another with him in his grave, and then my soul was not pleased to Leave it with someone else So I took him out after six months, and behold, he was as he was the day I placed him except his ear, so I placed him in a grave separately.” ((Narrated by Al-Bukhari)).
