Hadith 542
حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الزَّعْفَرَانِيُّ ، قَالَ : ثَنَا أَسْبَاطُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ ، قَالَ : ثَنَا الشَّيْبَانِيُّ ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ ، قَالَ : ثَنِي ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا ، وَزَعَمَ أَنَّهُ شَهِدَ ذَلِكَ ، قَالَ : " مَرَّ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِقَبْرٍ قَدْ دُفِنَ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ ، فَقَالَ : مَنْ هَذَا ؟ فَقَالُوا : هَذَا قَبْرُ فُلانٍ تُوُفِّيَ الْبَارِحَةَ فَكَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُؤْذِيَكَ لَيْلا فَيُصِيبَكَ بِشَيْءٍ أَوْ يَشُقَّ عَلَيْكَ فَدَفَنَّاهُ ، فَقَامَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَصَفَفْنَا خَلْفَهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ " .
Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates that I was present when the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) passed by a grave in which a deceased had been buried that very night. The Prophet (peace be upon him) inquired: "Whose grave is this?" The companions replied: "This is the grave of such-and-such a man who passed away last night. We did not wish to trouble you at night, lest it be difficult for you or cause you discomfort, so we buried him." The Noble Prophet (peace be upon him) stood up, we formed rows behind him, and he performed the funeral prayer for him.
