It is as if I can still see Ja'far when he hamstrung his red horse, then he fought until he was killed." (Da'if) Abū Dāwud said: This Hadīth is not strong.
2573 - حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ النُّفَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، حَدَّثَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّادٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ - قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: هُوَ يَحْيَى بْن عَبَّادٍ - حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي الَّذِي أَرْضَعَنِي وَهُوَ أَحَدُ بَنِي مُرَّةَ بْنِ عَوْفٍ وَكَانَ فِي تِلْكَ الْغَزَاةِ غَزَاةِ مُؤْتَةَ قَالَ: وَاللَّهِ لَكَأَنِّي أَنْظُرُ إِلَى جَعْفَرٍ حِينَ «اقْتَحَمَ عَنْ فَرَسٍ لَهُ شَقْرَاءَ فَعَقَرَهَا، ثُمَّ قَاتَلَ الْقَوْمَ حَتَّى قُتِلَ» قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ: «هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ لَيْسَ بِالْقَوِيِّ»
