3. Funerals

[Machine] He informed him that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to combine two people from the martyrs of Uhud in one shroud. Then he would say, "Which of them took more of the Qur'an?" When he was pointed to one of them, he would place him in the grave and say, "I bear witness on behalf of them on the Day of Resurrection." And he ordered them to be buried with their blood and not to offer the funeral prayer for them or wash their bodies. Abu 'Abd al-Rahman said to us, and this is also what we do not know, no one from the trustworthy companions of Al-Zuhri followed Al-Layth in this narration, and they differed with Al-Zuhri on it. We have already explained their difference regarding this matter.
أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ أَيُّهُمَا أَكْثَرُ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ فَإِذَا أُشِيرَ لَهُ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمَا قَدَّمَهُ فِي اللَّحْدِ وَقَالَ أَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَى هَؤُلَاءِ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَأَمَرَ بِدَفْنِهِمْ بِدِمَائِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَمْ يُغَسَّلُوا قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَهَذَا أَيْضًا لَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا مِنْ ثِقَاتِ أَصْحَابِ الزُّهْرِيِّ تَابَعَ اللَّيْثَ عَلَى هَذِهِ الرِّوَايَةِ وَاخْتُلِفَ عَلَى الزُّهْرِيِّ فِيهِ وَقَدْ بَيَّنَّا اخْتِلَافَهُمْ عَلَيْهِ فِي غَيْرِ هَذَا الْمَوْضِعِ
