Twelve Martyrs in Jannah

Anas (RadiyAllah anhu) reported that a women once came to the Prophet (peace be upon him) and said:

"I had a dream that I was taken out of Al- Madinah and into Jannah. I heard a great noise that caused Jannah to shake. I looked around (for its cause), and saw so-and-so , and so-and-so , and so-and-so (thus naming twelve men that Allah's Messenger(peace be upon him) had sent out on an expedition). They were brought forth, wearing dirty clothes, and blood was pouring from their necks. They were then submerged into al-Baydakh (the greatness) river, and came out of it with their faces shining like a full moon. They were offered dates on a golden tray. They ate as much as they wished , and I ate with them."

A few days later, a forerunner came back from the expedition and informed the prophet(peace be upon him) that the twelve men were killed. The prophet (peace be upon him) then summoned the woman and commanded her to repeat her dream, which she did, naming the twelve men that were killed.

Recorded by Ahmed, Ibn Hibban, and others. Verified to be authentic by al- Albani (Sahihu mawarid iz- Zam'an no. 1513).
