Anas b. Malik reported: We were along with Umar between Mecca and Medina that we began to look for the new moon. And I was a man with sharp eye- sight, so I could see it, but none except me saw it. I began to say to 'Umar: Don't you see it? But he would not see it. Thereupon Umar said: I would soon be able to see it (when it will shine more brightly). I lay upon bed. 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. Thereupon he said: You cannot hear more distinctly than (their hearing) of what I say, but with this exception that they have not power to make any reply.
