أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ «نَعَى لِلنَّاسِ النَّجَاشِيَّ وَخَرَجَ بِهِمْ فَصَفَّ بِهِمْ وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ»

"A woman from among the people of Al-'Awali fell sick and the Prophet was the best in visiting the sick. He said: 'When she dies, inform me.' She died at night and they buried her without telling the Prophet. The following morning he asked about her and they said: we did not like to wake you, O Messenger of Allah.' So he went to her grave and offered the funeral prayer for her and said Takbir four times."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1981)

مَرِضَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَوَالِي وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَحْسَنَ شَيْءٍ عِيَادَةً لِلْمَرِيضِ فَقَالَ «إِذَا مَاتَتْ فَآذِنُونِي» فَمَاتَتْ لَيْلًا فَدَفَنُوهَا وَلَمْ يُعْلِمُوا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ سَأَلَ عَنْهَا فَقَالُوا كَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُوقِظَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَتَى قَبْرَهَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا «وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا»
