"عَنْ إِبْراهِيمَ الهَجْرِىِّ قَالَ: رَأَيْتُ ابْنَ أَبِى أَوْفَى، وَكَان من أَصْحَاب الشَّجَرَةِ، وَمَاتَتَ ابْنَةٌ فَتَبِعَهَا عَلَى بَغْلٍ خَلفَهَا، فَجَعَلَ النِّسَاءُ يَبْكِينَ، فَقَالَ: لا تَرْثِينَ؟ فَإنَّ رَسولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَن (المراثِى) وَلتُفِضْ إِحْدَاكُنَّ مِنْ عَبْرَتِهَا مَا شَاءَتْ، ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ عَلَيْهَا أرْبَعًا، ثُمَّ قَامَ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ قَدْرَ مَا بَيْنَ التَّكْبِيرَتَيْنِ يَدْعُو، وَقَالَ: إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ كانَ يَصْنَعُ في الجنَائِز هَكَذَا".

[Machine] "Do not lament, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade mourning. One of you should shed tears as much as she wishes, then she should suppress them and say the takbirs four times. After the fourth takbir, she should stand and pray, raising her hands between the two takbirs. Then she should make supplication and say that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to act in the funeral in this way."

لَا تَرْثِينَ فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ نَهَى عَنِ الْمَرَاثِي فَتُفِيضُ إِحْدَاكُنَّ مِنْ عَبْرَتِهَا مَا شَاءَتْ ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ عَلَيْهَا أَرْبَعًا ثُمَّ قَامَ بَعْدَ الرَّابِعَةِ قَدْرَ مَا بَيْنَ التَّكْبِيرَتَيْنِ يَدْعُو ثُمَّ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَصْنَعُ فِي الْجِنَازَةِ هَكَذَا

[Machine] A daughter of his died, so he followed her on a mule, walking behind the funeral procession, while women were mourning her. He said, "Let them mourn or not mourn. Verily, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade mourning." And he said, "One of you should take off her outer garment as she wishes, then he offered the funeral prayer over her, and he performed four Takbirs (saying Allahu Akbar, meaning Allah is the Greatest) over her grave, then he stood after the fourth Takbir for as long as it takes to say the distance between the two Takbirs, seeking forgiveness for her and supplicating. It was narrated, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to do it like this.'"

[Machine] His daughter died, so he came out in her funeral on a bier behind the funeral procession. The women began to lament, so Abdullah ibn Abu Awfa said: "Do not lament, for the Messenger of Allah ﷺ forbade mourning, but rather let one of you cry over her own loss as she wishes." Then he prayed over her and raised his hands in supplication, as far as the distance between the two prostrations, seeking forgiveness for her and making du'a. Then he said: "This is how the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to do."
