2076. It was narrated that Anas said: "We were with 'Umar between Makkah and Al-Madinah, when he started to tell us about the people of Badr. He said: 'The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ showed us the day before where they (the disbelievers) would fall. He said: This is the place where so-and-so will fall tomorrow, if Allâh wills.' 'Umar said: 'By the One Who sent him with the truth! They did not miss those places. They were placed in a well and the Prophet ﷺ came to them and called out: O so-and-so, son of so-and-so! O so-and-so, son of so-and-so! Have you found what your Lord promised to be true? For I have found what Allâh promised me to be true.' 'Umar said: 'Are you speaking to bodies in which there are no souls?' He said: 'You do not hear what I say any better than they do.'"[1] (Sahih)
