“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Najashi has died.’ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ and his Companions went out to Al-Baqi’, and we lined up in rows behind him, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went forward, then he said four Takbir.”  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ النَّجَاشِيَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ إِلَى الْبَقِيعِ فَصَفَّنَا خَلْفَهُ وَتَقَدَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ‘Your brother Najashi has died, so offer the funeral prayer for him.” Then he stood and we prayed behind him. I was in the second row and two rows prayed for him.”  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَخَاكُمُ النَّجَاشِيَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ قَالَ فَقَامَ فَصَلَّيْنَا خَلْفَهُ وَإِنِّي لَفِي الصَّفِّ الثَّانِي فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ صفَّين  

“Your brother Najashi has died, so stand and pray for him.” So we formed two rows behind him.  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ إِنَّ أَخَاكُمُ النَّجَاشِيَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَقُومُوا فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ فَصَففنَا خَلْفَهُ صَفَّيْنِ  

“Pray for a brother of yours who has died in a land other than yours.” They said: “Who is he?” He said: “Najashi.”  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَرَجَ بِهِمْ فَقَالَ صَلُّوا عَلَى أَخٍ لَكُمْ مَاتَ بِغَيْرِ أَرْضِكُمْ قَالُوا مَنْ هُوَ؟ قَالَ النَّجَاشِيُّ  

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Umar that the Prophet ﷺ offered the funeral prayer for Najashi and said four Takbir.  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ صَلَّى عَلَى النَّجَاشِيِّ فَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا
