3089. It was narrated from 'Āmir Ar-Rām, the brother of Al-Khudr — Abū Dāwūd said: An-Nufaili said: "He is Al-Khudr. But that is how he said it." — He said: "I was in our country when the flags and banners were raised. I said: 'What is this?' They said: 'This is the banner of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ.' I came to him when he was beneath a tree; a cloak had been spread out for him, and he was sitting on it, and his Companions had gathered around him, I sat with them and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ mentioned illnesses. He said: 'When the believer is stricken with an illness, then Allāh heals him of it, it is an expiation for his past sins, and a warning for the future. But when the hypocrite is stricken with an illness, then recovers, he is like a camel whose owners tethered it, then let it loose, and it does not know why they tethered it, nor why they let it loose.' One of the men who were around him said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, what are illnesses? By Allāh, I have never fallen sick.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'Get up and leave us, for you are not one of us.' While we were with him, a man came wearing a cloak, and carrying in his hand something over which he had wrapped part of his cloak. He said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, when I saw you I came to you, and I passed through a thicket of trees, where I heard the voices of some chicks. I took them and put them in my cloak, and their mother came and started hovering above my head. I uncovered them and she swooped down on them, and I wrapped them all up in the cloak and they are with me here.' He said: 'Put them down.' So he put them down, but their mother persisted on staying close to them. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said to his Companions: 'Are you surprised by the compassion of the chicks' mother towards her chicks?' They said: 'Yes, O Messenger of Allāh.' He said: 'By the One Who sent me with the truth, Allāh is more compassionate towards His slaves than the mother of the chicks towards her chicks. Take them and put them back where you took them from, and their mother with them.' So he took them back." (Da'if)

3090. It was narrated from Muḥammad bin Khālid — Abū Dāwūd said: Ibrāhīm bin Mahdī said: "As-Sulāmī" — from his father, that his grandfather, who was a Companion of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, said: "I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'If a certain status has previously been decreed by Allāh for a person, and he does not attain it by his deeds, Allāh afflicts him in his body, or wealth, or children.'" (Hasan) Abū Dāwūd said: Ibn Nufail (one of the narrators) added: "Then He makes him bear it with patience." Then they (the two narrators) were in accord: "Until He causes him to reach the status that Allāh had previously decreed for him.”

3111. Jābir bin 'Atīk narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ came to visit 'Abdullāh bin Thābit, and found him unconscious. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ called loudly to him, and he did not respond, so the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said "Innā Lillāhi wa innā ilaihi rāji'ūn (Verily, to Allāh we belong and unto Him is our return)," and he said: "The Divine Decree has overpowered us concerning you, O Abū Ar-Rabī'." The women screamed and wept, and Ibn 'Atīk started telling them to be quiet, but the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Let them be, for when he falls, no woman should weep." They said: "What does falling mean, O Messenger of Allāh?" He said: "Death." His daughter said: "By Allāh, we were hoping that you would be a martyr, for you had just finished making preparations (for Jihād). The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, will give him his reward according to his intention. What do you regard as martyrdom?" They said: "Being killed in the cause of Allāh." The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Martyrdom is seven things, besides being killed in the cause of Allāh. The one who dies of the plague is a martyr, the one who drowns is a martyr, the one who dies of pleurisy is a martyr, the one who dies of a stomach ailment is a martyr, the one who is burned to death is a martyr, the one who dies beneath a collapsed building is a martyr, and the woman who dies in pregnancy is a martyr."

3112. It was narrated that Abū Hurairah said: "Banū Al-Hārīth bin 'Āmir bin Nawfal bought Khubaib, and Khubaib was the one who had killed Al-Hārīth bin 'Āmir on the Day of Badr. Khubaib stayed with them as a prisoner, until they decided to kill him. He asked to borrow a razor from the daughter of Al-Hārīth with which to shave his pubes, and she lent it to him. A small child of hers crawled away when she was not looking and went to him, and she found him alone with the child on his lap, and the razor in his hand. She panicked and he noticed that, and said: 'Are you afraid that I will kill him? I would not do that.'"

English translation

3118. It was narrated that Umm Salamah said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ entered upon Abū Salamah and his eyes were fixed open, so he closed them. Some of his family cried aloud and he said: 'Do not supplicate, but only for good things, for the angels say Āmin to whatever you say.' Then he said: 'Allāhummaghfir li abi Salamata warfa' darajatahu fil-mahdiyyīna, wākhluṣhu fī aqibhi fil-ghābirīna waghfirlana wa lahu. (Yā) Rabbal-ālamīn! Allāhumma! Ifsah lahu fī qabrihi wa nawwir lahu fīh (O Allāh, forgive Abū Salamah and raise him in status among those who are guided, and take care of his family who are left behind, and forgive him and us, O Lord of the worlds. O Allāh, make his grave spacious for him and fill it with light).'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: Closing the eyes of the deceased is to be done after the soul departs. I heard Muḥammad bin Muḥammad bin An-Nu'mān Al-Muqṛī say: "I heard Abū Maisarah — a man who was devoted to worship — say: 'I closed the eyes of Ja'far Al-Mu'allim — who was a man devoted to worship — when he was dying, and I saw him in my dream the night he died, saying: "The hardest thing for me was that you closed my eyes before I died."

3125. It was narrated from Usāmah bin Zaid that a daughter of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ sent word to him, when Sa'd and I, and I think Ubayy, were with him, (saying): "My son" or "daughter is dying; come to us." He sent word to her, conveying his Salām, and he said: "Say: 'Lillāhi mā akhadha wa mā a'ṭa, wa kullu shaīn 'indahu ajal (To Allāh belongs that which He takes and that which He gives, and everything has an appointed time with Him).'" She sent word adjuring him to come, so he went to her, and the child was placed in the lap of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and his soul was rattling. The eyes of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ overflowed with tears, and Sa'd said to him: "What is this?" He said: "This is compassion which Allāh places in the hearts of whomever He wills, and Allāh only shows mercy to the merciful among His slaves." (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Shrouds were few and the slain were many, so one or two, or three men, were shrouded in a single cloth. Qutaibah (one of the narrators) added: "Then they were buried in a single grave, and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ would ask: 'Which of them knew more Qur'ān?' Then he would place him closer to the Qiblah." (Da'if)

3141. Yahyā bin ‘Abbād narrated that his father ‘Abbād bin ‘Abdullāh bin Az-Zubair said: “I heard ‘Aishah say: ‘When they wanted to wash the Prophet ﷺ, they said: “By Allāh, we do not know whether we should remove the garments of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, as we remove the garments from our own deceased, or wash him with his garments on him.” When they differed, Allāh caused them to sleep until there was no man among them whose chin was not on his chest. Then a voice came to them from the corner of the house, and they did not know who it was, telling them to wash the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ with his garments on him. So they washed him, and he was wearing his Qamīṣ. They poured the water over the Qamīṣ and rubbed him with the Qamīṣ, not their hands.’ ‘Aishah used to say: ‘If I had known beforehand what I know now, no one but his wives would have washed him.’” (Hasan)

When we had finished, we called him, and he gave us his Haqwa and said: Put it next to her body."(Saḥīḥ) (Abū Dāwūd) said: Mālik said: "Meaning his Izār"[1] and Musaddad did not say: "entered upon us."

If (the deceased) was good then send him quickly (to what is good for him) and if he was otherwise then may the people of Hell be doomed. And the Janāzah should be followed, rather than follow; those who walk ahead of it are not accompanying it.'" (Da'īf) Abū Dāwūd said: He (one of the narrators) is weak; he is Yahyā bin ‘Abdullāh, and he is (also called) Yahyā Al-Jābir.

3185. Jābir bin Samurah said: "A man fell ill, and a cry was raised (about his death). His neighbour came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and said to him: 'He has died'. He said: 'How do you know?' He said: 'I saw him.' He said: 'He has not died.' So he went back, but a cry was raised for him, so he back came to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and said: 'He has died.' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'He has not died.' He went back, and a cry was raised for him, and his wife said: 'Go to the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ and tell him.' The man said: 'O Allāh, curse him.' Then the man went and saw that he had killed himself with an arrowhead that he had with him. He went to the Prophet ﷺ, and told him that he had died. He said: 'How do you know?' He said: 'I saw him killing himself with an arrowhead that he had with him.' He said: 'Did you (really) see that?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'Then I shall not offer the (funeral) prayer for him.'" (Sāḥih)

English translation

3194. It was narrated that Nāfi‘ Abū Ghālib said: “I was in an alley of Al-Mirbad, and a funeral passed by, followed by many people. They said: ‘(It is) the funeral of Abdullāh bin ‘Umayr.’ I followed it, and I saw a man wearing a thin cloak, riding his horse, with a piece of cloth on his head to protect him from the sun. I said: ‘Who is this important man?’ They said: ‘This is Anas bin Mālik.’ When the Janāzah was placed on the ground, Anas stood and offered the funeral prayer for (the deceased), and I was behind him with no one in between myself and him. He stood by his head, and said the Takbīr four times, and he did not make (the prayer) long or nor in a hurry. Then he went and sat down. They said: 'O Abū Ḥamzah, the Anṣārī woman.' They brought her near, and she was covered with a green bier. He stood in line with her buttocks and offered the funeral prayer for her, as he had done for the man, then he sat down. Al-'Alā' bin Ziyād said: 'O Abū Ḥamzah, did the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ offer the funeral prayer as you did, with four Takbīr, and standing by the head of a man, and by the buttocks of a woman?' He said: 'Yes.' He said: 'O Abū Ḥamzah, did you go out on a campaign with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ (ﷺ)?' He said: 'Yes, I went out on the campaign with him to Hunain, and the idolaters came out and attacked us (so fiercely) that we fled faster than our horses. Among the people, there was a man who was attacking us, smashing us and wounding us. But Allāh defeated them, and they were brought and started giving him (the Prophet ﷺ) their pledge for Islam. One of the Companions of the Prophet ﷺ said: 'I take a vow, that if Allāh brings me the man who was smashing us all day, I shall strike his neck.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ remained silent, and that man was brought. When he saw the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, he said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, I have repented to Allāh.' The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ refrained from accepting his pledge of allegiance so that the other man might fulfill his vow. The man (who had made the vow) began watching the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, expecting the order to kill him, but he did not dare to take action without the permission of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ. When the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ saw that he was not going to do anything, he accepted (the other man's) pledge of allegiance. The man said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, my vow!' He said: 'I only refrained (from accepting his pledge of allegiance) just now so that you could fulfill your vow.' He said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, why did you not give me a wink?' The Prophet ﷺ said: 'It is not befitting for a Prophet to wink.'" (Hasan) Abū Ghālib said: "I asked about Anas's actions when he stood by the woman's buttocks, and they told me that it was because there used to be no biers, so the Imām would stand by the buttocks in order to screen her from the people."

English translation

3238. It was narrated from 'Amr bin Dīnār, from Sa'eed bin Jubair, from Ibn 'Abbās who said: "A man's she-camel had thrown him, and his neck was broken, and he died while he was in Iḥrām; he was brought to the Prophet ﷺ. He said: 'Shroud him in his two garments and wash him with water and lote leaves, but do not cover his head, for Allāh will raise him on the Day of Resurrection reciting the Talbiyah.'" (Ṣaḥīḥ) Abū Dāwūd said: I heard Aḥmad bin Ḥanbal say: "There are five Sunnahs in this Hadīth: 'Shroud him in his two garments,' meaning, the deceased should be shrouded in two cloths; 'wash him with water and lote leaves," meaning, there should be lote leaves in every washing; 'do not cover his head and do not bring any perfume near him.' And the shroud is from his own wealth.
