English translation

2024. It was narrated from Yazīd bin Thâbit that they went out with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ one day and he saw a new grave. He said: “What is this?” They said: “This is so-and-so, the freed slave woman of Banu so-and-so” – whom Messenger of Allāh ﷺ knew – “she died at midday and we did not like to wake you up when you were fasting and taking a nap.” The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ stood (for prayer) and the people formed rows behind him. He said four Takbīrs over her then he said: “If anyone among you dies while I am still among you, inform me, for my prayer for him is a mercy.” (Sahih)

Arabic text

2022 - أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ أَبُو قُدَامَةَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ نُمَيْرٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ حَكِيمٍ، عَنْ خَارِجَةَ بْنِ زَيْدِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ عَمِّهِ يَزِيدَ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، أَنَّهُمْ خَرَجُوا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ فَرَأَى قَبْرًا جَدِيدًا، فَقَالَ: «مَا هَذَا؟» قَالُوا: هَذِهِ فُلَانَةُ مَوْلَاةُ بَنِي فُلَانٍ، فَعَرَفَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَاتَتْ ظُهْرًا وَأَنْتَ نَائِمٌ قَائِلٌ فَلَمْ نُحِبَّ أَنْ نُوقِظَكَ بِهَا، فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَصَفَّ النَّاسَ خَلْفَهُ، وَكَبَّرَ عَلَيْهَا أَرْبَعًا، ثُمَّ قَالَ: «لَا يَمُوتُ فِيكُمْ مَيِّتٌ مَا دُمْتُ بَيْنَ أَظْهُرِكُمْ إِلَّا آذَنْتُمُونِي بِهِ، فَإِنَّ صَلَاتِي لَهُ رَحْمَةٌ»

Commentary

If someone is buried without having the funeral prayer performed over him; offering funeral service over his grave is an agreed upon issue.
