[2253] 100 - (...) It was narrated from 'Aîshah that when Sa'd bin Abî Waqqâs died, the wives of the Prophet ﷺ sent word telling them to bring his funeral into the Masjid so that they might offer the funeral prayer for him, and they did so. It was placed in front of their apartments so that they could offer the prayer for him, then it was taken out through Bâb Al-Janâ'iz (the Gate of Funerals) which was near a place where people used to sit. Then they heard that the people were criticizing them for that and saying that funerals would not be brought into the Masjid. News of that reached 'Aîshah and she said: "How quick the people are to criticize that of which they have no knowledge! They criticized us for bringing a funeral into the Masjid, but the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ did not offer the funeral prayer for Suhail bin Baidâ' except in the Masjid." Muslim said: (That is) Suhail bin Da'd, and he is Ibn Al-Baidâ', his mother was Baidâ'.

100 - (973) وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ حَاتِمٍ، حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا وُهَيْبٌ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الْوَاحِدِ، عَنْ عَبَّادِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّهَا لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ أَرْسَلَ أَزْوَاجُ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنْ يَمُرُّوا بِجَنَازَتِهِ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، فَيُصَلِّينَ عَلَيْهِ، فَفَعَلُوا فَوُقِفَ بِهِ عَلَى حُجَرِهِنَّ يُصَلِّينَ عَلَيْهِ أُخْرِجَ بِهِ مِنْ بَابِ الْجَنَائِزِ الَّذِي كَانَ إِلَى الْمَقَاعِدِ، فَبَلَغَهُنَّ أَنَّ النَّاسَ عَابُوا ذَلِكَ، وَقَالُوا: مَا كَانَتِ الْجَنَائِزُ يُدْخَلُ بِهَا الْمَسْجِدَ، فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ عَائِشَةَ، فَقَالَتْ: مَا أَسْرَعَ النَّاسَ إِلَى أَنْ يَعِيبُوا مَا لَا عِلْمَ لَهُمْ بِهِ، عَابُوا عَلَيْنَا أَنْ يُمَرَّ بِجَنَازَةٍ فِي الْمَسْجِدِ، «وَمَا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى سُهَيْلِ ابْنِ بَيْضَاءَ إِلَّا فِي جَوْفِ الْمَسْجِدِ»
