1340. Narrated Ibn 'Abbās: رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا: The Prophet ﷺ offered the funeral prayer of a man one night after he was buried, he and his Companions stood up (for the Salāt — prayer). He had asked them about him before standing, saying, "Who is this?" They said, "He is so-and-so and was buried last night." So, all of them offered the funeral prayer for him.
1340 - حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ: صَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى رَجُلٍ بَعْدَ مَا دُفِنَ بِلَيْلَةٍ، قَامَ هُوَ وَأَصْحَابُهُ وَكَانَ سَأَلَ عَنْهُ، فَقَالَ: «مَنْ هَذَا؟» فَقَالُوا: فُلاَنٌ دُفِنَ البَارِحَةَ، فَصَلَّوْا عَلَيْهِ
