1908. It was narrated from Abû Umâmah bin Sahl bin Hunaif that a poor woman fell sick and the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was informed of her sickness. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ used to visit the poor when they were sick and ask about them. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: "If she dies, then inform me." Then her funeral took place at night and they did not like to wake the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ. When morning came, the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ was told what had happened to her. He said: "Did I not tell you to inform me?" They said: "O Messenger of Allâh, we did not like to wake you up at night." The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ went out and the people lined up by her grave and he said four Takbîrs. (Ṣaḥīḥ)

Besides corroborating the issue of the chapter, it is also proven that the funeral prayer could be performed again, at the grave.
