3212. It was narrated that Al-Barā' bin 'Azīb said: "We went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ for the funeral of an Anṣārī man, but when we reached the grave, the Lahd (niche) had not yet been dug. The Prophet ﷺ sat down facing the Qiblah and we sat with him." (Hasan)

Arabic text

3212 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنِ الْمِنْهَالِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو، عَنْ زَاذَانَ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ بْنِ عَازِبٍ، قَالَ: «خَرَجْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي جَنَازَةِ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ فَانْتَهَيْنَا إِلَى الْقَبْرِ، وَلَمْ يُلْحَدْ بَعْدُ فَجَلَسَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُسْتَقْبِلَ الْقِبْلَةِ وَجَلَسْنَا مَعَهُ»
