“When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ followed a funeral, he would not sit down until it had been placed in the niche-grave. A rabbi came to him and said: ‘This is what we do, O Muhammad!’ So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ sat down and said: ‘Be different from them.’”
كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا اتَّبَعَ جِنَازَةً لَمْ يَقْعُدْ حَتَّى تُوضَعَ فِي اللَّحْدِ فَعَرَضَ لَهُ حَبْرٌ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا نَصْنَعُ يَا مُحَمَّدُ فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ خَالِفُوهُمْ
