"عَنْ أَبِى أُمَامَة بن سَهْل بن حُنَيْف: أَنَّ مِسْكِينةً مرضَتْ فَأُخْبرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بمرضها، قَالَ: وَكَانَ رَسُول اللَّهِ ﷺ يعود المسَاكِينَ وَيَسْأَلُ عَنْهُم فَقَالَ رَسُول اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا مَاتَتْ فآذِنُونِى بِهَا، فَخُرِجَ بِجنازَتِهَا لَيْلًا فَكَرِهُوا أَنْ يُوقِظُوا رَسُول اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَح رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أُخْبِرَ بِالذى كَانَ مِنْ شَأنِهَا فَقَالَ: أَلمْ آمُركُم أَنْ تؤذنونى بِهَا؟ فَقَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! كَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُخْرِجَكَ لَيْلًا، فَخَرَجَ رسُول اللَّهِ ﷺ حتَّى صَفَ النَّاسَ عَلَى قَبْرِهِا وَكبَّرَ أَرْبَعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ".
a poor woman fell sick and the Messenger of Allah was informed of her sickness. The Messenger of Allah used to visit the poor when they were sick and ask about them. The Messnger of Allah said: "If she dies, then inform me." Then her funeral took place at night and they did not like to wake the Messenger of Allah. When morning came, the Messenger of Allah was told what had happened to her. He said: "Did I not tell you to inform me?" They said: "O Messenger of Allah, we did not like to wake you up at night." The Messenger of Allah went out and the people lined up by her grave and he said four Takbirs.
أَنَّهُ أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ مِسْكِينَةً مَرِضَتْ فَأُخْبِرَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِمَرَضِهَا وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَعُودُ الْمَسَاكِينَ وَيَسْأَلُ عَنْهُمْ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا مَاتَتْ فَآذِنُونِي فَأُخْرِجَ بِجَنَازَتِهَا لَيْلاً وَكَرِهُوا أَنْ يُوقِظُوا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ أُخْبِرَ بِالَّذِي كَانَ مِنْهَا فَقَالَ أَلَمْ آمُرْكُمْ أَنْ تُؤْذِنُونِي بِهَا قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُوقِظَكَ لَيْلاً فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ حَتَّى صَفَّ بِالنَّاسِ عَلَى قَبْرِهَا وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعَ تَكْبِيرَاتٍ
Yahya related to me from Malik from Ibn Shihab that Abu Umama ibn Sahl ibn Hunayf told him that once a poor woman fell ill and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was told of her illness, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ used to visit poor people frequently and ask after them. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Let me know if she dies." Her bier was brought out at night- time and they did not want to wake up the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. In the morning the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was told what had happened to her and he said, "Didn't I tell you to let me know if she died?" They replied, "Messenger of Allah, we did not want to wake you up and make you come out in the night." Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ went out and formed everyone into rows by her grave and said "Allah is greater" four times.
