ذِكْرُ الْأَمْرِ بِالْجُلُوسِ عِنْدَ رُؤْيَةِ الْجَنَائِزِ بَعْدَ الْأَمْرِ بِالْقِيَامِ لَهَا

I saw a funeral among Banu Salimah so I stood up. Nafi’ bin Jubair said to me: Sit down, and I will tell you something decisive about this: Masʿood bin al-Hakam az-Zuraqi told me that he heard ‘Ali bin Abi Talib ؓ in Rahbatal-Koofah saying: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ told us to stand up for funerals; then later on he remained seated and told us to remain seated. (Using translation from Aḥmad 623)  

شَهِدْتُ جَنَازَةً فِي بَنِي سَلِمَةَ فَقُمْتُ فَقَالَ لِي نَافِعُ بْنُ جُبَيْرٍ اجْلِسْ فَإِنِّي سَأُخْبِرُكَ فِي هَذَا بِثَبْتٍ حَدَّثَنِي مَسْعُودُ بْنُ الْحَكَمِ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عَلِيًّا بِرَحْبَةِ الْكُوفَةِ يَقُولُ لِلنَّاسِ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَأْمُرُنَا بِالْقِيَامِ فِي الْجَنَازَةِ ثُمَّ جَلَسَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَأَمَرَ بِالْجُلُوسِ»
