[2195] 56 - (...) Dâwûd bin 'Âmir bin Sa'd bin Abî Waqqâs narrated from his father, that he was sitting with 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar when Khabbâb came and said: "O 'Abdullâh bin 'Umar, have you not heard what Abû Hurairah is saying - that he heard the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ say: 'Whoever comes out with a funeral from the house (of the deceased) and offers the funeral prayer, then follows (the funeral) until (the deceased) is buried, he will have two Qirât of reward, each Qirât like Uhud (mountain). and whoever offers the funeral prayer then goes back will have a reward like Uhud (mountain?)” Ibn ‘Umar sent Khabbâb to ‘Āishah to ask her about what Abû Hurairah had said, then to come back and tell him what she said. Ibn ‘Umar picked up a handful of pebbles in the Masjid, turning them over in his hand, until the messenger came back to him and said: “‘Āishah said: ‘Abû Hurairah spoke the truth.’” Ibn ‘Umar threw the pebbles that were in his hand onto the floor and said: “We have missed out on many Qirât.”

56 - (945) وحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، حَدَّثَنِي حَيْوَةُ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو صَخْرٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ قُسَيْطٍ، أَنَّهُ حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ دَاوُدَ بْنَ عَامِرِ بْنِ سَعْدِ بْنِ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ، حَدَّثَهُ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ قَاعِدًا عِنْدَ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ، إِذْ طَلَعَ خَبَّابٌ صَاحِبُ الْمَقْصُورَةِ، فَقَالَ يَا عَبْدَ اللهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ: أَلَا تَسْمَعُ مَا يَقُولُ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «مَنْ خَرَجَ مَعَ جَنَازَةٍ مِنْ بَيْتِهَا، وَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ تَبِعَهَا حَتَّى تُدْفَنَ كَانَ لَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ مِنْ أَجْرٍ، كُلُّ قِيرَاطٍ مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ، وَمَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا، ثُمَّ رَجَعَ، كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ»؟ فَأَرْسَلَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ خَبَّابًا إِلَى عَائِشَةَ يَسْأَلُهَا عَنْ قَوْلِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، ثُمَّ يَرْجِعُ إِلَيْهِ فَيُخْبِرُهُ مَا قَالَتْ: وَأَخَذَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ قَبْضَةً مِنْ حَصَى الْمَسْجِدِ يُقَلِّبُهَا فِي يَدِهِ، حَتَّى رَجَعَ إِلَيْهِ الرَّسُولُ، فَقَالَ: قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: صَدَقَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ، فَضَرَبَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ بِالْحَصَى الَّذِي كَانَ فِي يَدِهِ الْأَرْضَ، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لَقَدْ فَرَّطْنَا فِي قَرَارِيطَ كَثِيرَةٍ»
