3214. It was narrated from Nājiyah bin Ka'b, from 'Alī, who said: "I said to the Prophet ﷺ: 'Your paternal uncle, the misguided old man, has died.' He said: 'Go and bury your father, then do not do anything until you come to me.' So I went and buried him, then I came to him, and he told me to perform Ghusl and supplicated for me." (Hasan)

Arabic text

3214 - حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ، عَنْ نَاجِيَةَ بْنِ كَعْبٍ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَام، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: إِنَّ عَمَّكَ الشَّيْخَ الضَّالَّ قَدْ مَاتَ، قَالَ: «اذْهَبْ فَوَارِ أَبَاكَ، ثُمَّ لَا تُحْدِثَنَّ شَيْئًا، حَتَّى تَأْتِيَنِي» فَذَهَبْتُ فَوَارَيْتُهُ وَجِئْتُهُ فَأَمَرَنِي فَاغْتَسَلْتُ وَدَعَا لِي
