Bukhari book 5/ Volume 59/ hadith 560.

Ibn 'Umar informed me that on the day (of Mu'tah) he stood beside Ja'far who was dead (i.e. killed in the battle), and he counted fifty wounds in his body, caused by stabs or strokes, and none of those wounds was in his back.

'Abdullah bin 'Umar said, "Allah's Apostle appointed Zaid bin Haritha as the commander of the army during the Ghazwa of Mu'tah and said, "If Zaid is martyred, Ja'far should take over his position, and if Ja'far is martyred, 'Abdullah bin Rawaha should take over his position.' " 'Abdulla-h bin 'Umar further said, "I was present amongst them in that battle and we searched for Ja'far bin Abi Talib and found his body amongst the bodies of the martyred ones, and found over ninety wounds over his body, caused by stabs or shots (of arrows)

From the book from tafsir ibn Kathir it said " when the muslims were regrouped they attacked slowly moving back looking like they ran away but the romans were tricked Khalid bin waleed got his horse men to make a dust in the air making it look like reinforcements were coming the romans when they saw this they fleed from battle khalid bin waleed decided not to chase them he stayed till all of the romans had left and then he went back to medina victorious".
