Jabir said that when the Prophet emigrated to Medina at-Tufail b. ‘Amr ad-Dausi did so also accompanied by one of his people who became ill and had so little patience to bear it that he took some arrow heads of his with which he cut his knuckles, and his hands flowed with blood till he died. Then at-Tufail b. ‘Amr saw him in a dream with a fine appearance and saw him covering his hands, so he said to him, “What did your Lord do to you?" He replied, “He forgave me because of my emigration to His prophet.” He asked, “How is it that I see you covering your hands? He replied that it had been said to him, “We will not put right what you have spoilt." At-Tufail told this to the Prophet and he said, “O God, forgive his hands also." Muslim transmitted it.

أسد الغابة (2092)هل لك في حصن حصين ، وذكر الحديث . قال : فلما هاجر النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم ، إلى المدينة هاجر إليه الطفيل بن عمرو ، وهاجر معه رجل من قومه ، فاجتووا المدينة فمرض فجزع ، فأخذ مشاقص له فقطع بها براجمه ، فشخبت يداه حتى مات فرآه الطفيل بن عمرو في منامه في هيئة حسنة ، ورآه مغطيا يديه فقال : ما صنع بك ربك
