Musnad Ahmad Hadith 13854

It is narrated from Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) that some people came to the service of the Prophet (ﷺ) and said, "Send some people with us who will teach us the Qur'an and Sunnah." So the Prophet (ﷺ) sent seventy Ansari companions with them, who were called the Qurra. Among them was my maternal uncle, Haram. These people used to recite the Qur'an at night, and during the day they would bring water and keep it in the mosque, and they would cut wood and sell it, and with that money they would buy food for the people of Suffa and the poor. The Prophet (ﷺ) sent them, and those who took them separated them and martyred them before they reached their area. They said, "O Allah! Convey this message from us to our Prophet that we have met You, we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us." Meanwhile, a man came to Haram (may Allah be pleased with him), "my uncle," from behind and struck him with a spear so that it passed through him. He said, "By the Lord of the Ka'bah! I have succeeded." On the other hand, the Prophet (ﷺ) informed his companions (may Allah be pleased with them) of this news, saying, "Your brothers who have been martyred said to their Lord, 'Convey this message from us to our Prophet that we have met You, we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us.'"
