By Kamal El-Mekki. Anas bin Malik narrated that on the day of the battle of Badr, the Messenger of Allah said: “Stand up and face Paradise, the width of which is like the heavens and earth” Umair bin al Hamam said: “O Messenger of Allah, Paradise the width of which is like the heavens and earth?”
The Messenger of Allah said: “Yes” Umair was eating from some dates in his hand. He said: “If I am going to live as long as it takes to finish eating these dates that’s a long time!” and he threw away the dates and rushed to the battlefield and was killed. (Muslim – al Hakim)
