Hadith 3259

حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ أَنَا خَالِدٌ عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ شَهِدَ جَنَازَةَ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ، قَالَ: فَأَظْهَرُوا الْاسْتِغْفَارَ، فَلَمْ يُنْكِرْ ذَلِكَ أَنَسٌ، قَالَ هُشَيْمٌ: قَالَ خَالِدٌ فِي حَدِيثِهِ: وَأَدْخَلُوهُ مِنْ قِبَلِ رِجْلِ الْقَبْرِ، وَقَالَ هُشَيْمٌ مَرَّةً: إِنَّ رَجُلًا مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ مَاتَ بِالْبَصْرَةِ فَشَهِدَهُ أَنَسُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ فَأَظْهَرُوا لَهُ الْاسْتِغْفَارَ
Ibn Sirin says that Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) attended the funeral of an Ansari man. The people prayed for forgiveness for him in a loud voice, and Sayyiduna Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) did not object to them. Khalid, the narrator, while relating this hadith, said: They lowered the deceased into the grave from the side of the feet. And Hisham, the narrator, once narrated this hadith as follows: An Ansari man passed away in Basra, and Sayyiduna Anas bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) also attended his funeral. The people prayed for forgiveness for the deceased in a loud voice.
