Anas bin Malik reported,

Some men came to the Prophet ﷺ and said, "Send with us some men to teach us the Quran and the Sunnah."So he sent to them seventy men from the Ansar, who were called the Reciters. Among them was my maternal uncle Haram. They would recite the Quran and study it together at night, and during the day they would bring water and place it in the mosque, and they would gather firewood and sell it, using the proceeds to buy food for the people of the Suffah and the poor.The Prophet ﷺ sent them, but the enemy intercepted them and killed them before they reached their destination. They said, "O Allah, convey to our Prophet on our behalf that we have met You, and we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us."A man came up behind Haram, the uncle of Anas, and stabbed him with his spear, running it clean through him. Haram said, "I have triumphed, by the Lord of the Kaabah!"The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to his companions, "Your brothers who were killed said to their Lord, 'Convey to our Prophet on our behalf that we have met You, and we are pleased with You, and You are pleased with us.'"

حدثنا عفان حدثنا حماد بن سلمة قال أخبرنا ثابت

عن أنس قال

جاء أناس إلى النبي ﷺ فقالوا ابعث معنا رجالا يعلمونا القرآن والسنة فبعث إليهم سبعين رجلا من الأنصار يقال لهم القراء فيهم خالي حرام يقرءون القرآن ويتدارسونه بالليل وكانوا بالنهار يجيئون بالماء فيضعونه في المسجد ويحتطبون فيبيعونه ويشترون به الطعام لأهل الصفة والفقراء فبعثهم النبي ﷺ فتفرقوا لهم فقتلوهم قبل أن يبلغوا المكان فقالوا اللهم أبلغ عنا نبينا أنا قد لقيناك فرضينا عنك ورضيت عنا قال فأتى رجل حراما خال أنس من خلفه فطعنه برمحه حتى أنفذه فقال فزت ورب الكعبة فقال رسول الله ﷺ لأصحابه إن إخوانكم الذين قتلوا قالوا لربهم بلغ عنا نبينا أنا قد لقيناك فرضينا عنك ورضيت عنا
