بَابُ وَفَاةِ النَّجَاشِيُّ الرَّجُلِ الصَّالِحِ وَهَلَاكِ عَبْدِ الله بن أبي الْمُنَافِقِ الطَّالِح
Chapter on the Death of al-Najashi, the Righteous Man, and the Destruction of ‘Abdullah ibn Ubayy, the Hypocrite
Hadith 10950
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ نَعَى لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ النَّجَاشِيَّ فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ فَخَرَجَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى فَصَفَّ أَصْحَابَهُ وَكَبَّرَ عَلَيْهِ أَرْبَعًا
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that on the day Najashi passed away, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) informed us of his death on that very day. Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) proceeded towards the place of funeral or the Eid ground, formed rows of his noble companions, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) pronounced four takbirs.
Hadith 10951
عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَاتَ الْيَوْمَ رَجُلٌ صَالِحٌ مِنَ الْحَبَشِ هَلُمَّ فَصُفُّوا فَصَفَفْنَا قَالَ فَصَلَّى النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَنَحْنُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Today, a righteous man from Abyssinia has passed away, so come and form rows." Thus, we formed rows and the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and we offered the funeral prayer.
Hadith 10952
عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ لَمَّا مَاتَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ جَاءَ ابْنُهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ أَعْطِنِي قَمِيصَكَ حَتَّى أُكَفِّنَهُ فِيهِ وَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِ وَاسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ قَمِيصَهُ وَقَالَ آذِنِّي بِهِ فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ لِيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ يَعْنِي عُمَرَ قَدْ نَهَاكَ اللَّهُ أَنْ تُصَلِّيَ عَلَى الْمُنَافِقِينَ فَقَالَ أَنَا بَيْنَ خِيَرَتَيْنِ اسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ أَوْ لَا تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ [التوبة: 80] فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ فَأَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ تَعَالَى وَلَا تُصَلِّ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ مَاتَ أَبَدًا [التوبة: 84] قَالَ فَتُرِكَتِ الصَّلَاةُ عَلَيْهِمْ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Abdullah bin Ubayy, the hypocrite, died, his son Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), who was a Muslim, came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! Grant me your shirt so that I may shroud my father in it, and lead his funeral prayer, and seek forgiveness for him. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gave him his shirt and said: Inform me at the time (of the funeral). When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) stepped forward to lead the prayer, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Allah Almighty has forbidden you from performing the funeral prayer for the hypocrites. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) replied: I have been given a choice; Allah Almighty has said: Whether you seek forgiveness for them or do not seek forgiveness for them. So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led the funeral prayer, and then Allah Almighty revealed this command: {وَلَا تُصَلِّ عَلٰی أَحَدٍ مِنْہُمْ مَاتَ أَبَدًا} … And never pray the funeral prayer for any of them who dies.
Hadith 10953
عَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ لَمَّا مَاتَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ أَتَى ابْنُهُ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّكَ إِنْ لَمْ تَأْتِهِ لَمْ نَزَلْ نُعَيَّرُ بِهَذَا فَأَتَاهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَوَجَدَهُ قَدْ أُدْخِلَ فِي حُفْرَتِهِ فَقَالَ أَفَلَا قَبْلَ أَنْ تُدْخِلُوهُ فَأُخْرِجَ مِنْ حُفْرَتِهِ فَتَفَلَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ قَرْنِهِ إِلَى قَدَمِهِ وَأَلْبَسَهُ قَمِيصَهُ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that when Abdullah bin Ubayy passed away, his son came to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and said: O Messenger of Allah! If you do not come for my father's funeral prayer, we will always be taunted for it. So the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went, and saw that he had already been placed in the grave. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Why did you not call me before placing him in the grave? Then he was taken out from his grave, and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) applied his blessed saliva from his head to his feet, and clothed him in his own shirt.
Hadith 10954
عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ قَالَ دَخَلْتُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُبَيٍّ فِي مَرَضِهِ نَعُودُهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَدْ كُنْتُ أَنْهَاكَ عَنْ حُبِّ يَهُودَ فَقَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ فَقَدْ أَبْغَضَهُمْ أَسْعَدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ فَمَاتَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Usama bin Zaid (may Allah be pleased with him) that I went, in the company of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), to visit Abdullah bin Ubayy during his illness at the time of his death. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said to him: I used to forbid you from loving the Jews. He replied: As'ad bin Zurarah (may Allah be pleased with him) also harbored enmity towards these Jews, but in the end, he too died.
