1513. It was narrated that Ibn 'Abbâs said: "They (the martyrs) were brought to the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ on the Day of Uhud, and he started to offer the funeral prayer for them, ten by ten. Hamzah lay where he lay, and they were taken away but he was left where he was."[1] (Hasan)

Arabic text

1513 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ مِقْسَمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: أُتِيَ بِهِمْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ، فَجَعَلَ «يُصَلِّي عَلَى عَشَرَةٍ عَشَرَةٍ، وَحَمْزَةُ هُوَ كَمَا هُوَ، يُرْفَعُونَ وَهُوَ كَمَا هُوَ مَوْضُوعٌ»

Commentary

A martyr who is killed in the battlefield fighting against the disbelievers will not be washed, even though the washing of sexual impurity was compulsory upon him; rather he will be buried with his fighting clothes. Imâm Ibn Qayyim says: "The correct opinion about performing the funeral prayer for a martyr on the battlefield is that both the views of performing a funeral prayer and not performing are authentic. Both views have valid proof."
