9. Funerals
٩۔ كِتَابُ الْجَنَائِزِ
[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon Abu Salamah, and his eyesight had become weak, so he closed them. Then he said, "Indeed, when the soul is taken, the eyesight follows it." There was noise among his family, so he said, "Do not supplicate against yourselves except with goodness, for indeed the angels affirm what you say." Then he said, "O Allah, forgive Abu Salamah and raise his rank among the guided, and substitute him with someone better in his family among those who came after him, and forgive us and him, O Lord of the worlds. O Allah, enlarge his grave and illuminate it for him." And he mentioned 6607. And Abu Abdullah Al-Hafiz informed us, narrating from Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ya'qub, who narrated from Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab al-Farra', who narrated from Mu'awiyah ibn Amr, and he mentioned it.
دَخَلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى أَبِي سَلَمَةَ وَقَدْ شَقَّ بَصَرُهُ فَأَغْمَضَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ إِنَّ الرُّوحَ إِذَا قُبِضَ تَبِعَهُ الْبَصَرُ فَضَجَّ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَهْلِهِ فَقَالَ لَا تَدْعُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِكُمْ إِلَّا بِخَيْرٍ؛ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ يُؤَمِّنُونَ عَلَى مَا يَقُولُونَ ثُمَّ قَالَ اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لِأَبِي سَلَمَةَ وَأَرْفَعْ دَرَجَتَهُ فِي الْمَهْدِيِّينَ وَأَخْلِفْهُ فِي عَقِبِهِ فِي الْغَابِرِينَ وَاغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلَهُ يَا رَبَّ الْعَالَمِينَ اللهُمَّ أَفْسِحْ لَهُ فِي قَبْرِهِ وَنَوِّرْ لَهُ فِيهِ 6607 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ ثنا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ الْفَرَّاءُ ثنا مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو فَذَكَرَهُ
[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "Have you not seen that when a person dies, his vision follows him?" They replied, "Yes, O Messenger of Allah." He said, "That is the moment when his vision follows his soul."
قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَلَمْ تَرَوْا إِلَى الْإِنْسَانِ إِذَا مَاتَ شَخَصَ بَصَرُهُ؟ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَالَ فَذَلِكَ حِينَ يَتْبَعُ بَصَرُهُ نَفْسَهُ
[Machine] "If you close the deceased's eyes, say Bismillah and upon the religion of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ . And if you carry him, say Bismillah, then continue to praise Allah as long as you carry him."
إِذَا غَمَّضْتَ الْمَيِّتَ فَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللهِ وَعَلَى مِلَّةِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَإِذَا حَمَلْتَهُ فَقُلْ بِسْمِ اللهِ ثُمَّ سَبِّحْ مَا دُمْتَ تَحْمِلُهُ
