1335. Narrated Ṭalḥa bin 'Abdullāh bin 'Aūf: I offered the funeral prayer behind Ibn 'Abbās رضي الله عنهما (and he) recited Al-Fātiḥa and said, "You should know that it (i.e. recitation of Al-Fātiḥa) in the funeral prayer is the Sunna (legal way of Prophet Muḥammad ﷺ)."
1335 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا غُنْدَرٌ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ سَعْدٍ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ، قَالَ: صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا، ح حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ سَعْدِ بْنِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، عَنْ طَلْحَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ، قَالَ: صَلَّيْتُ خَلْفَ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ فَقَرَأَ بِفَاتِحَةِ الكِتَابِ قَالَ: «لِيَعْلَمُوا أَنَّهَا سُنَّةٌ»
