I said to the Prophet ﷺ: Your old and astray uncle has died. He said: Go and bury your father, and then do not do anything until you come to me. So I went, buried him and came to him. He ordered me (to take a bath), so I took a bath, and he prayed for me.  

قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَوَارِ أَبَاكَ ثُمَّ لاَ تُحْدِثَنَّ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي فَذَهَبْتُ فَوَارَيْتُهُ وَجِئْتُهُ فَأَمَرَنِي فَاغْتَسَلْتُ وَدَعَا لِي  

When Abu Talib died, I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Your paternal uncle, the old man, has died. He said: “Go and bury him, then do not do anything until you come to me.ʿ So I went and buried him, then I came to him and he said: “Go and do ghusl, then do not do anything until you come to me.” So I did ghusl, then I came to him and he offered duʿaʿ for me, and I would not be happy if I had red and black camels instead of that. [The narrator] said: And ‘Ali ؓ used to do ghusl when he had washed a deceased person.  

لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ قَدْ مَاتَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ ثُمَّ لَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي قَالَ فَوَارَيْتُهُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَاغْتَسِلْ ثُمَّ لَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي قَالَ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ قَالَ فَدَعَا لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ مَا يَسُرُّنِي أَنَّ لِي بِهَا حُمْرَ النَّعَمِ وَسُودَهَا قَالَ وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ إِذَا غَسَّلَ الْمَيِّتَ اغْتَسَلَ  

When Abu Talib died, I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Your paternal uncle, the old man, has died. He said: “Go and bury him, then do not do anything about his affairs until you come to me.” So I went and buried him, then I came to him and he said: ʿGo and do ghusl, then do not do anything until you come to me.” So I did ghusl, then I came to him and he offered duʿaʿ for me, and I would not be happy if I had red and black camels instead of that. Ibn Bakkar said in his Hadeeth: as-Suddi said: And ‘Ali ؓ used to do ghusl when he had washed a deceased person.  

لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ قَدْ مَاتَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ وَلا تُحْدِثْ مِنْ أَمْرِهِ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي فَوَارَيْتُهُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَقَالَ اذْهَبْ فَاغْتَسِلْ وَلا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَدَعَا لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ مَا يَسُرُّنِي بِهِنَّ حُمْرُ النَّعَمِ وَسُودُهَا وقَالَ ابْنُ بَكَّارٍ فِي حَدِيثِهِ قَالَ السُّدِّىُّ وَكَانَ عَلِيٌّ إِذَا غَسَلَ مَيِّتًا اغْتَسَلَ  

When Abu Talib died, I came to the Prophet ﷺ and said: Your paternal uncle, the misguided old man, has died. He said: ʿGo and bury him, and do not do anything until you come to me.ʿ So I went and buried him. Then he told me to do ghusl, then he prayed for me, offering supplications that I would not like to have anything else instead of them.  

لَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَقَالَ انْطَلِقْ فَوَارِهِ وَلا تُحْدِثَنَّ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي قَالَ فَانْطَلَقْتُ فَوَارَيْتُهُ فَأَمَرَنِي فَاغْتَسَلْتُ ثُمَّ دَعَا لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ مَا أُحِبُّ أَنَّ لِي بِهِنَّ مَا عَرُضَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ  

"I said to the Prophet: 'Your paternal uncle, the old misguided man has died. Who will bury him?' He said: 'Go and bury your father, then do not do anything until you come to me.' So I buried him then I came, and he told me to perform Ghusl and he prayed for me, and he mentioned a supplication that I do not remember."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 2006)  

قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَمَنْ يُوَارِيهِ؟ قَالَ «اذْهَبْ فَوَارِ أَبَاكَ وَلَا تُحْدِثَنَّ حَدَثًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي» فَوَارَيْتُهُ ثُمَّ جِئْتُ «فَأَمَرَنِي فَاغْتَسَلْتُ» وَدَعَا لِي وَذَكَرَ لِي دُعَاءً لَمْ أَحْفَظْهُ  

[Machine] "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came and said, 'Verily, your uncle, the misguided, has passed away. Who will shroud him?' I said, 'Go and shroud your father and do not speak of anything until you come to me.' So I did as he instructed, then I went to him. He ordered me to perform ablution, so I did, and he supplicated for me with supplications that pleased me more than the entire world.'"  

أَنَّهُ جَاءَ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَمَنْ يُوَارِيهِ؟» قَالَ «اذْهَبْ فَوَارِ أَبَاكَ وَلَا تُحْدِثْ حَدَثًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي فَفَعَلْتُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَغْتَسِلَ فَاغْتَسَلْتُ وَدَعَا لِي بِدَعَوَاتٍ مَا يَسُرُّنِي مَا عَلَى الْأَرْضِ بِشَيْءٍ مِنْهُنَّ»  

[Machine] When Abu Talib died, I went to the Prophet ﷺ and said to him, "Indeed, your uncle, the misguided old man, has died." He said, "Go and wash him and do not say anything until you come to me." So, I washed him and then I went to him (the Prophet) and said, "I have washed him." He commanded me, so I performed the ritual washing (ghusl).  

لَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ لَهُ إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ قُلْتُ إِنَّهُ مَاتَ مُشْرِكًا قَالَ اذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ وَلَا تُحَدِّثْ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي « فَوَارَيْتُهُ ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ فَقُلْتُ قَدْ وَارَيْتُهُ فَأَمَرَنِي فَاغْتَسَلْتُ»  

"عَنْ عَلِىٍّ قَالَ: لَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو طَالِبٍ أَتَيْتُ النَّبِىَّ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ: إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ، قَالَ: فَاذْهَبْ فَوَارِهِ وَلَا تُحْدِثْ شَيْئًا حَتّى تَأتِيَنِى، فَفَعَلْتُ الَّذِى أَمَرَنِى بِهِ، ثُمَّ أَتَيْتُهُ، وَعَلَّمَنِى دَعَوَاتٍ هُنَّ أَحَبُّ إِلَىَّ مِنْ حُمُرِ النَّعَمِ".
