Chapter on walking in front of or behind the funeral, and what is reported regarding riding with it
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 3210 — on walking in front of or behind
عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ (بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ) قَالَ: سَأَلْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنِ الْمَسِيرِ بِالْجَنَازَةِ فَقَالَ: ((مَطْبُوعَةٌ وَلَيْسَتْ بِتَابِعَةٍ))
Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) about walking with the funeral procession, so he (peace and blessings be upon him and his family) said: Remain behind the funeral, do not let it be behind you.
