Hadith 27:568

Ali ibn Mushir narrated to us, from al-Ajalh, from al-Sha'bi, who said: The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) was approached when he conquered Khaybar, and it was said to him: "Ja'far has arrived from the Negus." He said: "I do not know which of the two I am more joyful about: the arrival of Ja'far or the conquest of Khaybar." Then he met him, embraced him, and kissed him between his eyes.

حدثنا علي بن مسهر عن الأجلح عن الشعبي قال أتي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم حين افتتح خيبر فقيل له قدم جعفر من عند النجاشي فقال ما أدري بأيهما أنا افرح بقدوم جعفر أو بفتح خيبر ثم تلقاه والتزمه وقبل ما بين عينيه
