That they were sitting with the Messenger of Allah when a funeral appeared. The Messenger of Allah stood up, and those who were with him stood up, until it had passed by. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1920)   

عَنْ عَمِّهِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا جُلُوسًا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَطَلَعَتْ جِنَازَةٌ «فَثَارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَثَارَ مَنْ مَعَهُ فَلَمْ يَزَالُوا قِيَامًا حَتَّى تَقَدَّمَتْ»  

"Sahl bin Hunaif and Qais bin Sa'd bin 'Ubadah were in Al-Qadisiyyah when a funeral passed by them, so they stood up and it was said to them: 'It is one of the local people.' They said: 'A funeral passed the Messenger of Allah and he stood up, and it was said to him: It Is a Jew. He said: 'Is it not a soul?"' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1921)  

كَانَ سَهْلُ بْنُ حُنَيْفٍ وَقَيْسُ بْنُ سَعْدِ بْنِ عُبَادَةَ بِالْقَادِسِيَّةِ فَمُرَّ عَلَيْهِمَا بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَامَا فَقِيلَ لَهُمَا إِنَّهُ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ فَقَالَا مُرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَامَ فَقِيلَ لَهُ إِنَّهُ يَهُودِيٌّ فَقَالَ «أَلَيْسَتْ نَفْسًا»  

"A funeral passed by us and the Messenger of Allah stood up and we stood with him. I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, it is a Jewish funeral.' He said: 'Death is something terrifying, so if you see a funeral, stand up,"' This is the wording of Khalid. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1922)  

مُرَّتْ بِنَا جِنَازَةٌ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقُمْنَا مَعَهُ فَقُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّمَا هِيَ جِنَازَةُ يَهُودِيَّةٍ قَالَ «إِنَّ الْمَوْتَ فَزَعٌ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الْجِنَازَةَ فَقُومُوا» اللَّفْظُ لِخَالِدٍ  

[Machine] "The Prophet ﷺ only attended a Jewish funeral, then he did not attend any other after that."  

«إِنَّمَا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِجِنَازَةِ يَهُودِيَّةٍ ثُمَّ لَمْ يَعُدْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ»  

a funeral passed by Al-Hasan bin 'Ali and Ibn 'Abbas. Al-Hasan stood up but Ibn 'Abbas did not/ Al-Hasan said: 'Didn't the Messenger of Allah stand up for the funeral of a Jew?' Ibn 'Abbas said: 'Yes, then he sat down."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1924)  

الْحَسَنُ «أَلَيْسَ قَدْ قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِجَنَازَةٍ يَهُودِيٍّ» فَقَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «نَعَمْ ثُمَّ جَلَسَ»  

"A funeral passed by Al-Hasan bin 'Ali and Ibn 'Abbas. Al-Hasan stood up but Ibn 'Abbas did not. Al-Hasan said to Ibn 'Abbas: 'Didn't the Messengr of Allah stand up for it?' Ibn 'Abbas said: 'He stood up for it then he sat."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1925)  

الْحَسَنُ لِابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَمَا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لَهَا؟ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ «قَامَ ثُمَّ قَعَدَ»  

[Machine] That the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood up and said, "The one who was sitting has indeed known that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has sat down."  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ قَامَ قَالَ الَّذِي جَلَسَ «لَقَدْ عَلِمْتُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ جَلَسَ»  

Al-Hasan bin 'Ali was sitting when a funeral passed by. The People stood until the funeral had passed, and Al-Hasan said: "The funeral of Jew passed by when the Messenger of Allah was sitting in its path, and he did not want the funeral of a Jew to pass over his head, so he stood up." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1927)  

الْحَسَنُ إِنَّمَا مُرَّ بِجِنَازَةِ يَهُودِيٍّ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى طَرِيقِهَا جَالِسًا «فَكَرِهَ أَنْ تَعْلُوَ رَأْسَهُ جِنَازَةُ يَهُودِيٍّ فَقَامَ»  

a funeral passed by the Messenger of Allah and he stood up. It was said: "It is the funeral of a Jew." He said: "We stood up for the angels." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1929)  

أَنَّ جِنَازَةً مَرَّتْ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ فَقَامَ فَقِيلَ إِنَّهَا جِنَازَةُ يَهُودِيٍّ فَقَالَ «إِنَّمَا قُمْنَا لِلْمَلَائِكَةِ»  

"The Prophet and his Companions stood up for the funeral of Jew that passed by him, until it disappeared." (In another narration) Jabir said: "The Prophet and his Companions stood up for the funeral of a Jew until it disappeared." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1928)  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لِجِنَازَةٍ مَرَّتْ بِهِ حَتَّى تَوَارَتْ قَالَ وَأَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ أَيْضًا أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا يَقُولُ «قَامَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَصْحَابُهُ لِجِنَازَةِ يَهُودِيٍّ حَتَّى تَوَارَتْ»  

A funeral procession passed by Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said, "Relieved or relieving?" The people asked, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! What is relieved and relieving?" He said, "A believer is relieved (by death) from the troubles and hardships of the world and leaves for the Mercy of Allah, while (the death of) a wicked person relieves the people, the land, the trees, (and) the animals from him." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6512)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ «مُسْتَرِيحٌ وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ» فَقَالُوا وَمَا الْمُسْتَرِيحُ وَالْمُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْهُ؟ قَالَ «الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ نَصَبِ الدُّنْيَا وَأَذَاهَا وَالْعَبْدُ الْفَاجِرُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْهُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلَادُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ»  

"We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah when a funeral appeared. The Messenger of Allah said: 'He is relieved and others are relieved of him. When the believer dies he is relieved of the calamities, hardships and troubles of this world, and when the evildoer dies, the people, the land, the trees and the animals are relieved of him."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1931)  

كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ إِذْ طَلَعَتْ جِنَازَةٌ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مُسْتَرِيحٌ وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَمُوتُ فَيَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ أَوْصَابِ الدُّنْيَا وَنَصَبِهَا وَأَذَاهَا وَالْفَاجِرُ يَمُوتُ فَيَسْتَرِيحُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلَادُ وَالدَّوَابُّ وَالشَّجَرُ مِنْهُ»  

"A funeral passed by and the deceased was praised." The Prophet said: "It is granted." Another funeral passed by and the deceased was criticized. The Prophet said: "It is granted." 'Umar said: "May my father and mother be ransomed for you. One funeral passed by and the deceased was praised, and you said, 'It is granted?"' He said: "Whoever is praised will be granted Paradise, and whoever is criticized will be granted Hell, You are the witnesses of Allah on Earth." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1932)  

نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» وَمُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ نَبِيُّ اللهِ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ فِدَاكَ أَبِي وَأُمِّي مُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقُلْتَ وَجَبَتْ وَمُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقُلْتَ وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ «مَنْ أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَمَنْ أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ شَرًّا وَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ أَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»  

"A funeral passed by the Prophet and they praised (the deceased). The Prophet said: 'It is granted.' Then another funeral passed by and they criticized (the deceased). The Prophet said: 'It is granted.' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, you said in both cases, 'It is granted?' The Prophet said: 'The angels are the witnesses of Allah in heaven, and you are the witnesses of Allah on Earth."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1933)  

مَرُّوا بِجِنَازَةٍ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» ثُمَّ مَرُّوا بِجِنَازَةٍ أُخْرَى فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قَوْلُكَ الْأَوَّلُ وَالْآخِرُ وَجَبَتْ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «الْمَلَائِكَةُ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي السَّمَاءِ وَأَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»  

"I came to Al-Madinah and sat with 'Umar bin Al-Khattab. A funeral passed by and the deceased was praised, and 'Umar said: 'It is granted.' Then another passed by and the deceased was praised, and 'Umar Said: 'It is granted.' Then a third passed by, and the deceased was criticized, and 'Umar said: 'It is granted.' I said: What is granted, O commander of the believers?' He said: 'I said what the Messenger of Allah said: Any Muslim for whom four people bear witness and say good things, Allah will admit him to Paradise.' We said: 'Or three?' He said: 'Or three.' We said: 'Or two?' He said: 'Or two."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1934)  

عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ بِأُخْرَى فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ بِالثَّالِثَةِ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبِهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ قَالَ وَمَا وَجَبَتْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ؟ قَالَ قُلْتُ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ شَهِدَ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةٌ بِخَيْرٍ أَدْخَلَهُ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ قُلْنَا أَوْ ثَلَاثَةٌ؟» قَالَ أَوْ ثَلَاثَةٌ قُلْنَا أَوِ اثْنَانِ؟ قَالَ أَوِ اثْنَانِ  

"Something bad was said in the presence of the Prophet about a person who had died. He said: 'Do not say anything but good about your dead."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1935)  

ذُكِرَ عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ هَالِكٌ بِسُوءٍ فَقَالَ «لَا تَذْكُرُوا هَلْكَاكُمْ إِلَّا بِخَيْرٍ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Do not abuse the dead, for they have reached the result of what they have done." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6516)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «لَا تَسُبُّوا الْأَمْوَاتَ فَإِنَّهُمْ قَدِ أَفْضَوْا إِلَى مَا قَدَّمُوا»  

"I heard Anas bin Malik say: The Messenger of Allah said: 'The dead person is followed by three: His family, his wealth and his deeds. Then two of them come back: His family and his wealth, and there remain only his deeds."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1937)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «يَتْبَعُ الْمَيِّتُ ثَلَاثَةٌ أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَعَمَلُهُ فَيَرْجِعُ اثْنَانِ أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَيَبْقَى وَاحِدٌ وَهُوَ عَمَلُهُ»  

"The believer owes six duties toward his fellow believer: To visit him when he is sick, to attend his funeral when he dies, to accept his invitation, to greet him with Salam when he meets him, to reply to him (say: Yarhamuk Allah, may Allah have mercy on you) when he sneezes and to be sincere to him, whether he is absent or present." (Hasan). (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1938)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «لِلْمُؤْمِنِ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِ سِتُّ خِصَالٍ يَعُودُهُ إِذَا مَرِضَ وَيَشْهَدُهُ إِذَا مَاتَ وَيُجِيبُهُ إِذَا دَعَاهُ وَيُسَلِّمُ عَلَيْهِ إِذَا لَقِيَهُ وَيُشَمِّتُهُ إِذَا عَطَسَ وَيَنْصَحُ لَهُ إِذَا غَابَ أَوْ شَهِدَ»  

The Prophet ﷺ ordered us to do seven (things) and forbade us from seven. He ordered us to visit the patients, to follow the funeral procession, to reply to the sneezer (i.e., say to him, 'Yarhamuka-l-lah (May Allah bestow His Mercy upon you), if he says 'Al-hamduli l-lah' (Praise be to Allah), to help others to fulfill their oaths, to help the oppressed, to greet (whomever one should meet), and to accept the invitation (to a wedding banquet). He forbade us to wear golden rings, to use silver utensils, to use Maiyathir (cushions of silk stuffed with cotton and placed under the rider on the saddle), the Qasiyya (linen clothes containing silk brought from an Egyptian town), the Istibraq (thick silk) and the Dibaj (another kind of silk). (See Hadith No. 539 and 753). (Using translation from Bukhārī 5175)  

قَالَ الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ عَازِبٍ «أَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِسَبْعٍ وَنَهَانَا عَنْ سَبْعٍ أَمَرَنَا بِعِيَادَةِ الْمَرِيضِ وَاتِّبَاعِ الْجَنَازَةِ وَتَشْمِيتِ الْعَاطِسِ وَإِبْرَارِ الْمُقْسِمِ وَنَصْرِ الْمَظْلُومِ وَإِفْشَاءِ السَّلَامِ وَإِجَابَةِ الدَّاعِي وَنَهَانَا عَنْ خَوَاتِيمِ الذَّهَبِ وَعَنْ آنِيَةِ الْفِضَّةِ وَعَنِ الْمَيَاثِرِ وَالْقَسِّيَّةِ وَالْإِسْتَبْرَقِ وَالْحَرِيرِ وَالدِّيبَاجِ»  

"I heard Al-Bara' bin 'Azib say: The Messenger of Allah said: 'whoever follows a Janazah until the prayer is offered, he will have one Qirat of reward and whoever walks with the funeral until (the body) is buried will have two Qirats of reward, and a Qirat is like Uhud."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1940)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ تَبِعَ جِنَازَةً حَتَّى يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ قِيرَاطٌ وَمَنْ مَشَى مَعَ الْجِنَازَةِ حَتَّى تُدْفَنَ كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ قِيرَاطَانِ وَالْقِيرَاطُ مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ»  

"The Messenger of Allah said: 'Whoever follows a Janazah until it is finished, he will have two Qirats, and whoever goes back before it is finished, he will have one Qirat." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1941)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «مَنْ تَبِعَ جِنَازَةً حَتَّى يَفْرُغَ مِنْهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ فَإِنْ رَجَعَ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَفْرُغَ مِنْهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ»  

"The Messenger of Allah said: The riders should move behind the Janazah and the pedestrian may walk wherever he wishes, and the (funeral) prayer should be offered for a child."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1942)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الرَّاكِبُ خَلْفَ الْجِنَازَةِ وَالْمَاشِي حَيْثُ شَاءَ مِنْهَا وَالطِّفْلُ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "The rider follows the funeral procession, and the one walking may go wherever he wants from it, and prayers are performed for the deceased child." Ishaaq ibn Ibrahim and Ali ibn Hujr and Qutaybah ibn Sa'id narrated from Sufyan from al-Zuhri from Salim from his father that he saw the Prophet ﷺ and Abu Bakr and Umar walking in front of the funeral procession. Abu Abd al-Rahman said, "This hadith is a mistake, and it contains the error of Ibn Uyaynah. Malik contradicted him and narrated it from al-Zuhri as marfu."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «الرَّاكِبُ خَلْفَ الْجِنَازَةِ وَالْمَاشِي حَيْثُ شَاءَ مِنْهَا وَالطِّفْلُ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ» 2082 أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ وَقُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ رَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ يَمْشُونَ أَمَامَ الْجِنَازَةِ قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ هَذَا الْحَدِيثُ خَطَأٌ وَهِمَ فِيهِ ابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ خَالَفَهُ مَالِكٌ رَوَاهُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ مُرْسَلًا  

[Machine] He informed him that he saw the Prophet and Abu Bakr, Umar, and Uthman walking in front of the funeral procession. Only Abu Bakr was mentioned, Uthman was not mentioned. Abu Abdur-Rahman told us that this is also a mistake and the correct version is Mursal (a type of Hadith) and this came to me only and Allah knows best because this hadith was narrated by Az-Zuhri from Salim from his father that he used to walk in front of the funeral procession. He said and the Prophet, Abu Bakr, and Umar used to walk in front of the funeral procession. He said and the Prophet said that this is only from the statement of Az-Zuhri. Ibn Al-Mubarak said that the scholars who narrated from Ibn Shihab are three, Malik, Ma'mar, and Ibn Uyaynah, so if two of them agree on something, we take their statement and leave the statement of the other. Abu Abdur-Rahman told us and Ibn Al-Mubarak mentioned this statement in this hadith.  

أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ «رَأَى النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَأَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ وَعُثْمَانَ يَمْشُونَ بَيْنَ يَدَيِ الْجِنَازَةِ» بَكْرٌ وَحْدَهُ لَمْ يَذْكُرْ عُثْمَانَ قَالَ لَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَهَذَا أَيْضًا خَطَأٌ وَالصَّوَابُ مُرْسَلٌ وَإِنَّمَا أَتَى هَذَا عِنْدِي وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ لِأَنَّ هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ رَوَاهُ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَالِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَمْشِي أَمَامَ الْجِنَازَةِ قَالَ وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ يَمْشُونَ أَمَامَ الْجِنَازَةِ وَقَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ إِنَّمَا هُوَ مِنْ قَوْلِ الزُّهْرِيِّ قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ الْحُفَّاظُ عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ثَلَاثَةٌ مَالِكٌ وَمَعْمَرٌ وَابْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ فَإِذَا اجْتَمَعَ اثْنَانِ عَلَى قَوْلٍ أَخَذْنَا بِهِ وَتَرَكْنَا قَوْلَ الْآخَرِ قَالَ لنا أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ وَذَكَرَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ هَذَا الْكَلَامَ عِنْدَ هَذَا الْحَدِيثِ  

A brother of yours has died, so stand up and offer prayer over him. So we stood up and drew ourselves up into two rows. (Using translation from Muslim 952c)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «إِنَّ أَخًا لَكُمْ قَدْ مَاتَ فَقُومُوا فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ»  

"One of the children of the Ansar (who had died) was brought to the Messenger of Allah so he prayed for him." 'Aishah said: "How fortunate he is, one of the little birds of Paradise. He never did any evil or reached the age of puberty." He said: "It is better not to say anything, O 'Aishah Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, created Paradise and created people for it, He created them in the loins of their fathers. And He created Hell and created people for it, and He created them in the loins of their fathers." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1947)  

أُتِيَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِصَبِيٍّ مِنْ صِبْيَانِ الْأَنْصَارِ يُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ فَقُلْتُ طُوبَى لِهَذَا عُصْفُورٌ مِنْ عَصَافِيرِ الْجَنَّةِ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ سُوءًا وَلَمْ يُدْرِكْهُ قَالَ أَوَ «غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ يَا عَائِشَةُ خَلَقَ اللهُ الْجَنَّةَ وَخَلَقَ لَهَا أَهْلًا وَخَلَقَهُمْ فِي أَصْلَابِ آبَائِهِمْ وَخَلَقَ النَّارَ وَخَلَقَ لَهَا أَهْلًا وَخَلَقَهُمْ فِي أَصْلَابِ آبَائِهِمُ»  

"The Messenger of Allah said: The riders should move behind the Janazah and the pedestrian may walk wherever he wishes, and the (funeral) prayer should be offered for a child."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1942)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «الرَّاكِبُ خَلْفَ الْجِنَازَةِ وَالْمَاشِي حَيْثُ شَاءَ مِنْهَا وَالطِّفْلُ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ ; was asked about the offspring of the pagans. He said, "Allah knows what they would have done (were they to live). (Using translation from Bukhārī 6597)  

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ أَوْلَادِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ «اللهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا كَانُوا بِهِ عَامِلِينَ»  

Allah knows best about what they were doing. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4711)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ سُئِلَ عَنْ أَوْلَادِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ «اللهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا كَانُوا بِهِ عَامِلِينَ»  

"The Messenger of Allah was asked about the children of the idolators and he said: 'Allah created them when He created them, and He knows best what they would have done."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1951)  

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ أَوْلَادِ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ «خَلَقَهُمُ اللهُ حِينَ خَلَقَهُمْ وَهُوَ يَعْلَمُ مَا كَانُوا عَامِلِينَ»

سُئِلَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَنْ ذَرَارِيِّ الْمُشْرِكِينَ فَقَالَ «اللهُ أَعْلَمُ بِمَا كَانُوا عَامِلِينَ»  

a man from among the Bedouins came to the Prophet and believed in him and followed him, then he said: "I will emigrate with you." The Prophet told one of his Companions to look after him. During one battle the Prophet got some prisoners as spoils of war, and he distributed them, giving him (that Bedouin) a share. His Companions gave him what had been allocated to him. He had been looking after some livestock for them, and when he came they gave him his share. He said: "What is this?" They said: "A share that the Prophet has allocated to you." He took it and brought it to the Prophet and said: "What is this?" He said: "I allocated it to your." He said: "It is not for this that I follwed you. Rather I followed you so that I might be shot her - and he pointed to his throat - with an arrow and die and enter Paradise." He said: "If you are sincere toward Allah, Allah will fulfill your wish." Shortly after that they got up to fight the enemy, then he was brought to the Prophet; he had pointed to. The Prophet said: "Is it him?" They said: "yes." He said: "He was sincere toward Allah and Allah fulfilled his wish." Then the Prophet shrouded him in his own cloak and out him in front of him and offered the (funeral) prayer for him. During his supplication he said: "O allah, this is Your sloave who went out as a emigrant (Muhajir) for your sake and was killed as a martyr; I am a witness to that.: (Sahih) . (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1953)   

أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَعْرَابِ جَاءَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَآمَنَ بِهِ وَاتَّبَعَهُ ثُمَّ قَالَ أُهَاجِرُ مَعَكَ فَأَوْصَى بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَعْضَ أَصْحَابِهِ فَلَمَّا كَانَتْ غَزْوَةٌ غَنِمَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ سَبْيًا «فَقَسَمَ وَقَسَمَ لَهُ» فَأَعْطَى أَصْحَابَهَ مَا قَسَمَ لَهُ وَكَانَ يَرْعَى ظَهْرَهُمْ فَلَمَّا جَاءَ دَفَعُوهُ إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا؟ قَالُوا قِسْمٌ قَسَمَهُ لَكَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَخَذَهُ فَجَاءَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَقَالَ مَا هَذَا فَقَالَ «قَسَمْتُهُ لَكَ» قَالَ مَا عَلَى هَذَا اتَّبَعْتُكَ وَلَكِنِ اتَّبَعْتُكَ عَلَى أَنْ أُرْمَى هَاهُنَا وَأَشَارَ إِلَى حَلْقِهِ بِسَهْمٍ فَأَمُوتَ فَأَدْخُلَ الْجَنَّةَ قَالَ «إِنْ تَصْدُقِ اللهَ يَصْدُقْكَ فَلَبِثُوا قَلِيلًا» ثُمَّ نَهَضُوا فِي قِتَالِ الْعَدُوِّ فَأُتِيَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يُحْمَلُ قَدْ أَصَابَهُ سَهْمٌ حَيْثُ أَشَارَ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَهُوَ هُوَ» فَقَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «صَدَقَ اللهَ فَصَدَّقَهُ» ثُمَّ كَفَّنَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فِي جُبَّةِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ ثُمَّ قَدَّمَهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فَكَانَ مِمَّا ظَهَرَ مِنْ صَلَاتِهِ عَلَيْهِ «اللهُمَّ هَذَا عَبْدُكَ خَرَجَ مُهَاجِرًا فِي سَبِيلِكَ فَقُتِلَ شَهِيدًا أَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَيْهِ» قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ مَا نَعْلَمُ أَحَدًا تَابَعَ ابْنَ الْمُبَارَكِ عَلَى هَذَا وَالصَّوَابُ ابْنُ أَبِي عَمَّارٍ عَنِ ابْنِ شَدَّادِ بْنِ الْهَادِ وَابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ أَحَدُ الْأَئِمَّةِ وَلَعَلَّ الْخَطَأَ مِنْ غَيْرِهِ وَاللهُ أَعْلَمُ  

the Messenger of Allah went out one day and offered the funeral prayer for the people f Uhd, then he went to the Minbar and said: "I am your predecessor and I am a witness over your." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1954)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ خَرَجَ يَوْمًا فَصَلَّى عَلَى أَهْلِ أُحُدٍ صَلَاتَهُ عَلَى الْمَيِّتِ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ إِلَى الْمِنْبَرِ فَقَالَ «إِنِّي فَرَطٌ لَكُمْ وَأَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَيْكُمْ»  

[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  

a man from Aslam came to the Prophet and confessed to committing Zina, and he turned away from him. He admitted it again, and he turned away from him. He admitted it again, and he turned away from him. Then when he had testified against himself four times, the Prophet said: "Are your crazy?" He said: "No." He said: "Have you been marred?" he said: "Yes." So the Prophet ordered that he be stoned. When the stones struck him, he ran away, but they caught up with him and stoned him and he died. Then the Prophet spoke well of him but he did not pray for him. (Shih) (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1956)  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَسْلَمَ جَاءَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَاعْتَرَفَ بِالزِّنَا فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ اعْتَرَفَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ ثُمَّ اعْتَرَفَ فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ حَتَّى شَهِدَ عَلَى نَفْسِهِ أَرْبَعَ مَرَّاتٍ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «أَبِكَ جُنُونٌ» قَالَ لَا قَالَ «أَحْصَنْتَ» قَالَ نَعَمْ «فَأَمَرَ بِهِ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَرُجِمَ فَلَمَّا أَذْلَقَتْهُ الْحِجَارَةُ فَرَّ فَأُدْرِكَ فَرُجِمَ حَتَّى مَاتَ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ خَيْرًا وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِ»  

a woman from Juhainah came to the Messenger of Allah sand said: "I have committed Zina." And she was committed Zina." And She was pregnant. He handed her over to her guardian and said: "Look after her, and when she gave birth, he brought her to him. He ordered that her garment be wrapped around her, then he offered the funeral prayer for her. 'Umar said to him: "Are you praying for her even though she committed Zina?" he said: "She has repented in a manner that, if it were to be shared among seventy of the people of Al-Madinah it would suffice them. Have you ever seen repentance better than the one who sacrificed herself for the sake of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime?" (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1957)  

أَنَّ امْرَأَةً مِنْ جُهَيْنَةَ أَتَتْ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقَالَتْ إِنِّي زَنَيْتُ وَهِيَ حُبْلَى فَدَفَعَهَا إِلَى وَلِيِّهَا فَقَالَ أَحْسِنْ إِلَيْهَا فَإِذَا وَضَعَتْ فَأْتِنِي بِهَا فَلَمَّا وَضَعَتْ جَاءَ بِهَا «فَأَمَرَ بِهَا فَشُكَّتْ عَلَيْهَا ثِيَابُهَا ثُمَّ رَجَمَهَا ثُمَّ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا» فَقَالَ لَهُ عُمَرُ تُصَلِّي عَلَيْهَا وَقَدْ زَنَتْ قَالَ لَقَدْ تَابَتْ تَوْبَةً لَوْ قُسِمَتْ بَيْنَ سَبْعِينَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِينَةِ لَوَسِعَتْهُمْ وَهَلْ وَجَدْتَ أَفْضَلُ مِنْ أَنْ جَادَتْ بِنَفْسِهَا لِلَّهِ  

a man freed six slaves of his when he was dying, and he did not have any wealth apart from them. News of that reached the Prophet and he was angry about that. He said: "I was thinking of not offering the funeral prapyer for him." Then he called the slaves and divided them into three groups. He cast lost among them, then freed two and left four as slaves. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1958)  

أَنَّ رَجُلًا أَعْتَقَ سِتَّةً مَمْلُوكِينَ لَهُ عِنْدَ مَوْتِهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ لَهُ مَالٌ غَيْرُهُمْ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَغَضِبَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ «قَدْ هَمَمْتُ أَنْ لَا أُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ دَعَا مَمْلُوكِيهِ فَجَزَّأَهُمْ ثَلَاثَةَ أَجْزَاءٍ ثُمَّ أَقْرَعَ بَيْنَهُمْ فَأَعْتَقَ اثْنَيْنِ وَأَرَقَّ أَرْبَعَةً»  

"A man died at Khaibar and the Messenger of Allah said: 'Pray for your companion; he stole from the spoils war.' We inspected his luggage and fund some of the beads of the Jews that were not even worth two Dirhams." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1959)  

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ إِنَّهُ غَلَّ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ فَفَتَّشْنَا مَتَاعَهُ فَوَجَدْنَا فِيهِ خَرَزًا مِنْ خَرَزِ اليَهُودَ مَا يُسَاوِي دِرْهَمَيْنِ»  

a man was brought to the Prophet for him to offer the funeral prayer, and he said: "Pray for your companion, for he owes a debt." Abu Qatadah said: " I will pay it." The Prophet said: "In full?" He said: "In full." So he prayed for him (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1960)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أُتِيَ بِرَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ لِيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ فَإِنَّ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنًا» قَالَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ هُوَ عَلَيَّ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِالْوَفَاءِ قَالَ بِالْوَفَاءِ قَالَ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ  

"A Janazah was brought to the Prophet and they said: " O Prophet of Allah, pray for him.' He said: "Did he leave any debt behind?' They said: "Yes.' He said 'Did he leave anything?' They said: No. He said; 'Pray fro your companion.' A man among the Ansar who was called Abu Qatadah said: 'Pray for him and I will pay off his debt.' So he prayed for him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1961)  

أُتِيَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالُوا يَا نَبِيَّ اللهِ صَلِّ عَلَيْهَا قَالَ «هَلْ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ قَالَ «هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟» قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ» قَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ يُقَالُ لَهُ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ صَلِّ عَلَيْهِ عَلَيَّ دَيْنُهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ  

"The Prophet would not pray for a man who owed a debt. A deceased person was brought to him and he said: 'Does he owe any debt?' They said: 'Yes, he owes two Dinars.' He said: 'Pray for your companion.' Abu Qatadah said: 'I will pay them, O Messenger of Alllah, So he prayed for him. Then, when Allah made His Messenger rich though conquest, he said: ' I am closer to each believer than his own self. Whoever leaves behind a debt, I will pay it, and whoever leaves behind wealth, it is for his heirs." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1962)  

كَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ لَا يُصَلِّي عَلَى رَجُلٍ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَأُتِيَ بِمَيِّتٍ فَسَأَلَ «هَلْ عَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ؟» قَالُوا نَعَمْ دِينَارَانِ قَالَ «صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ» قَالَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ هُمَا عَلَيَّ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ قَالَ «أَنَا أَوْلَى بِكُلِّ مُؤْمِنٍ مِنْ نَفْسِهِ مَنْ تَرَكَ دَيْنًا فَعَلَيَّ وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مَالًا فَهُوَ لِوَرَثَتِهِ»  

if a believer died at the time of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he had debts, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ would ask: “Did he leave anything with which to off his debt?” If they said yes, then he would offer the funeral prayer for him, but if they said no, then he would say: “Pray for your companion.” When Allah granted his Prophet ﷺ the conquests, he said: “I am nearer to the believers than their own selves. Whoever dies owing a debt, I will pay it off for him, and whoever leaves behind wealth, it will be for his heirs.” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 2415)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كَانَ إِذَا تُوُفِّيَ الْمُؤْمِنُ فِي عَهْدِ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ يَسْأَلُ «هَلْ تَرَكَ لِدَيْنِهِ مِنْ قَضَاءٍ» فَإِنْ قَالُوا نَعَمْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَإِنْ قَالُوا لَا قَالَ «صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ» فَلَمَّا فَتَحَ اللهُ عَلَى رَسُولِهِ ﷺ الْفُتُوحَ قَالَ «أَنَا أَوْلَى بِالْمُؤْمِنِينَ مِنْ أَنْفُسِهِمْ فَمَنْ تُوُفِّيَ وَعَلَيْهِ دَيْنٌ فَعَلَيَّ قَضَاؤُهُ وَمَنْ تَرَكَ مَالًا فَهُوَ لِوَرَثَتِهِ»  

a man killed himself with an arrowhead and the Messenger of Allah said: "As for me, I will not pray for him." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1964)  

رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «أَمَّا أَنَا فَلَا أُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said, "Whoever purposely throws himself from a mountain and kills himself, will be in the (Hell) Fire falling down into it and abiding therein perpetually forever; and whoever drinks poison and kills himself with it, he will be carrying his poison in his hand and drinking it in the (Hell) Fire wherein he will abide eternally forever; and whoever kills himself with an iron weapon, will be carrying that weapon in his hand and stabbing his ʿAbdomen with it in the (Hell) Fire wherein he will abide eternally forever." (Using translation from Bukhārī 5778)  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ تَرَدَّى مِنْ جَبَلٍ فَقَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ فَهُوَ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ يَتَرَدَّى فِيهَا خَالِدًا مُخَلَّدًا فِيهَا أَبَدًا وَمَنْ تَحَسَّى سُمًّا فَقَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ فَسُمُّهُ فِي يَدِهِ يَتَحَسَّاهُ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدًا مُخَلَّدًا فِيهَا أَبَدًا وَمَنْ قَتَلَ نَفْسَهُ بِحَدِيدَةٍ ثُمَّ انْقَطَعَ عَلَيَّ شَيْءٌ يَعْنِي خَالِدًا كَانَتْ حَدِيدَتُهُ فِي يَدِهِ يَجَأُ بِهَا فِي بَطْنِهِ فِي نَارِ جَهَنَّمَ خَالِدًا مُخَلَّدًا فِيهَا أَبَدًا»  

"When 'Abdullah bin Ubayy bin Soul died, the Messenger of Allah was called upon to offer the funeral prayer for him. When the Messenger of Allah stood up (to offer the prayer), I got up quickly and said: 'O Messenger of Allah Are you going to pray for Ibn Ubayy when he said such-and-such an occasion?' And I stated to list all the things that he had said. The Messenger of Allah smiled and said: 'Leave me alone, O 'Umar.' When I spoke too much he said: 'I have been given the choice and I have chosen (to offer the prayer for him). If I knew that he could be forgiven by asking Allah's forgiveness more than seventy times, I would have done so.' The Messenger of Allah offered the funeral prayer for him, and then left. A short while later, the two Verses form surah Bara were revealed: 'And never pray (funeral prayer) for any of them (hypocrites) who dies, nor stand at his grave. Certainly they disbelieved in Allah and His Messenger, and died while they were rebellious.' Later I was astonished by my audacity toward the Messenger of Allah on that day. And Allah and His Messenger know best." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1966)  

لَمَّا مَاتَ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أُبَيِّ ابْنِ سَلُولٍ دُعِيَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ فَلَمَّا قَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَثَبْتُ إِلَيْهِ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ أَتُصَلِّي عَلَى ابْنِ أُبَيٍّ وَقَدْ قَالَ يَوْمَ كَذَا وَكَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا أُعَدِّدُ عَلَيْهِ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَقَالَ «أَخِّرْ عَنِّي يَا عُمَرُ» فَلَمَّا أَكْثَرْتُ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ «إِنِّي خُيِّرْتُ فَاخْتَرْتُ لَوْ عَلِمْتُ أَنِّي إِنْ زِدْتُ عَلَى السَّبْعِينَ غُفِرَ لَهُ لَزِدْتُ عَلَيْهَا» فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَمَا مَكَثَ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا حَتَّى نَزَلَتِ الْآيَتَانِ مِنْ بَرَاءَةَ {وَلَا تُصَلِّ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ مَاتَ أَبَدًا وَلَا تَقُمْ عَلَى قَبْرِهِ إِنَّهُمْ كَفَرُوا بِاللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَمَاتُوا وَهُمْ فَاسِقُونَ} [التوبة 84] فَعَجِبْتُ بَعْدُ مِنْ جُرْأَتِي عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ يَوْمَئِذٍ وَاللهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ prayed for Suhail bin Bayda'a in the mosque. Isaac said, "He only prayed in the mosque."  

«صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى سُهَيْلِ بْنِ بَيْضَاءَ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ» قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ مَا صَلَّى إِلَّا فِي الْمَسْجِدِ  

"The Messenger of Allah did not ofer gthe funeral prayer for shail bin Baida anywhere but in the Masjid." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1967)  

«مَا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ عَلَى سُهَيْلِ بْنِ بَيْضَاءَ إِلَّا فِي جَوْفِ الْمَسْجِدِ»  

"A poor woman in Al-Awali fell sick and the Prophet used to ask them about her. He said: 'If she dies, do not bury her until I have offered the funeral prayer for her. She died and they brought her to Al-Madinah after dark, and they found that the Messenger of Allah had gone to sleep. They did not like to wake him up, so they offered the funeral prayer for her and buried her in Baqi' Al-Gharqab. The next morning they came and the Messenger of Allah asked them about her. They said: 'She has been buried, O Messenger of Allah. We came to you and found you sleeping, and we did not like to wake you up.' He said: 'let's go.' He set out walking and they went with him and showed him her grave. The Messenger of Allah stood and they formed rows behind him, and he offered the funeral prayer for her, saying the Takbir four times." (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1969)  

أَنَّهُ اشْتَكَتِ امْرَأَةٌ بِالْعَوَالِي مِسْكِينَةٌ فَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ يَسْأَلُهُمْ عَنْهَا فَقَالَ «إِنْ مَاتَتْ فَلَا تَدْفِنُوهَا حَتَّى أُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهَا» فَتُوُفِّيَتْ فَجَاءُوا بِهَا إِلَى الْمَدِينَةِ بَعْدَ الْعَتَمَةِ فَوَجَدُوا رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَدْ نَامَ فَكَرِهُوا أَنْ يُوقِظُوهُ فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهَا وَدَفَنُوهَا بِبَقِيعِ الْغَرْقَدِ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ جَاءُوا فَسَأَلَهُمْ عَنْهَا فَقَالُوا قَدْ دُفِنَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ وَقَدْ جِئْنَاكَ فَوَجَدْنَاكَ نَائِمًا فَكَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُوقِظَكَ فَقَالَ «انْطَلِقُوا فَانْطَلَقَ يَمْشِي وَانْطَلَقُوا مَعَهُ حَتَّى أَرُوهُ قَبْرَهَا فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَصَفُّوا وَرَاءَهُ فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهَا وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا»  

the Messenger of Allah said: "Your brother An-Najashi has died, so get up and offer the funeral prayer for him." He stood up and put us in rows as is done for the funeral prayer, and we prayed for him. (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1970)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ أَخَاكُمُ النَّجَاشِيَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَقُومُوا فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ فَقَامَ فَصَفَّ بِنَا كَمَا يُصَفُّ عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ»
