9. Funerals
٩۔ كِتَابُ الْجَنَائِزِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to gather the two men who were killed in the Battle of Uhud and wrap them in a single shroud. Then he would ask, "Which of them had taken more Qur'an?" When one of them was pointed out, he would place him in the grave first and say, "I am a witness over these people on the Day of Resurrection," and he commanded to bury them with their own blood without performing funeral prayer or washing them.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَيُّهُمْ أَكْثَرُ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ؟ فَإِذَا أُشِيرَ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمَا قَدَّمَهُ فِي اللَّحْدِ وَقَالَ أَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَأَمَرَ بِدَفْنِهِمْ بِدِمَائِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَمْ يُغَسِّلْهُمْ
[Machine] Narrated by Jabir, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to say regarding the martyrs of Uhud, "Who among these took the most recitation of the Quran?" When it was pointed out to him that it was a man who was buried ahead of his companion, Jabir said, "Wrap my father and uncle in a single piece of cloth."
عَنْ جَابِرٍ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ لِقَتْلَى أُحُدٍ أِيُّ هَؤُلَاءِ أَكْثَرُ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ فَإِذَا أُشِيرَ لَهُ إِلَى رَجُلٍ قَدَّمَهَ فِي اللَّحْدِ قَبْلَ صَاحِبِهِ قَالَ جَابِرٌ فَكُفِّنَ أَبِي وَعَمِّي فِي نَمِرَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ
[Machine] When it was the day of Uhud, they complained to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about hunger. They said, "O Messenger of Allah, the pits are becoming severe on us for every person." He said, "Dig deeper, improve, and bury two or three in one grave." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, then who shall we bury first?" He said, "Most of them are Quran." So, my father was buried with two others in one grave. It was narrated from Sa'd bin Hisham from his father.
لَمَّا كَانَ يَوْمُ أُحُدٍ شَكَوْا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ الْقَرْحَ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ يَشْتَدُّ عَلَيْنَا الْحَفْرُ لِكُلِّ إِنْسَانٍ قَالَ أَعْمِقُوا وَأَحْسِنُوا وَادْفِنُوا الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالثَّلَاثَةَ فِي قَبْرٍ فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَمَنْ نُقَدِّمُ قَالَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ قُرْآنًا قَالَ فَدُفِنَ أَبِي ثَالِثَ ثَلَاثَةٍ فِي قَبْرٍ وَقَدْ قِيلَ عَنْهُ عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ هِشَامٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ
[Machine] The wounds intensified on the day of Uhud, so they complained to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ about the abundance of wounds. He said, "Dig deeper, widen, improve, and bury two or three together in one grave. And prioritize those who have memorized the Quran." This hadith was narrated by Abd al-Warith from Ayyub from Humaid from Abu al-Dahma from Hisham.
اشْتَدَّتِ الْجِرَاحَاتُ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فَشَكَوْا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ كَثْرَةَ الْجِرَاحَاتِ فَقَالَ احْفِرُوا وَأَوْسِعُوا وَأَحْسِنُوا وَادْفِنُوا الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالثَّلَاثَةَ فِي قَبْرٍ وَقَدِّمُوا أَكْثَرَهُمْ قُرْآنًا وَرَوَاهُ عَبْدُ الْوَارِثِ عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي الدَّهْمَاءِ عَنْ هِشَامٍ
[Machine] "That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: 'Dig and widen, do good and bury the two or the three, and send forth the majority of them with the Qur'an. Abu Bayn was sent forth by two men, said the judge, Abu Hisham ibn Amir was killed on the Day of Uhud.'"
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ احْفِرُوا وَأَوْسِعُوا وَأَحْسِنُوا وَادْفِنُوا الِاثْنَيْنِ وَالثَّلَاثَةَ وَقَدِّمُوا أَكْثَرَهُمْ قُرْآنًا فَقُدِّمَ أَبِي بَيْنَ يَدَيْ رَجُلَيْنِ قَالَ الْقَاضِي قُتِلَ أَبُو هِشَامِ بْنُ عَامِرٍ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ
