3. Funerals
٣۔ كِتَابُ الْجَنَائِزِ
"There is no deceased person for whom a group of Muslims whose number reaches one hundred, offers the funeral prayer, interceding for him; but their intercession for him will be accepted." (One of the narrators) Sallam said: "I narrated it to Shu'aib bin Al-Habhab and he said: 'Anas bin Malik narrated it to me from the Prophet.'" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1991)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا مِنْ مَيِّتٍ يُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ يَبْلُغُونَ أَنْ يَكُونُوا مِائَةً يَشْفَعُونَ إِلَّا شُفِّعُوا فِيهِ» قَالَ سَلَّامٌ فَحَدَّثْتُ بِهِ شُعَيْبَ بْنَ الْحَبْحَابِ فَقَالَ هَكَذَا حَدَّثَنِي بِهِ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ
"No Muslim dies and a group of people whose number reaches one hundred offers the funeral prayer for him, interceding fro him, but their intercession for him will be accepted." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1992)
عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَمُوتُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَيُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَيَبْلُغُوا أَنْ يَكُونُوا مِائَةً فَيَشْفَعُوا إِلَّا شُفِّعُوا فِيهِ»
[Machine] One of the mothers of the believers, Maymuna, the wife of the Prophet ﷺ , said: The Prophet ﷺ told me that there is no deceased person whom a group of people from the nation pray for, except that they will intercede for him. So I asked Abu al-Malih about the group, and he said: forty.
عَنْ إِحْدَى أُمَّهَاتِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ وَهِيَ مَيْمُونَةُ زَوْجُ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَتْ أَخْبَرَنِي النَّبِيُّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَا مِنْ مَيِّتٍ يُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ إِلَّا شُفِّعُوا فِيهِ» فَسَأَلْتُ أَبَا الْمَلِيحِ عَنِ الْأُمَّةِ قَالَ أَرْبَعُونَ
