Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 4147

Abu al-Huwayrith says: Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) passed away. We were present at his door in the quarter of Banu Salimah. When the bier carrying his body came out of his room, Hasan bin Hasan was between the two poles of the bier. Al-Hajjaj bin Yusuf ordered him to come out from between the two poles, but he refused. The people wanted to force him, then the sons of Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) requested him, so he came out. When he came out, al-Hajjaj came and stood between the two poles and remained there until the body was set down. He led his funeral prayer. Then when he came to the grave, Hasan bin Hasan had already gone down into the grave. Al-Hajjaj ordered him to come out, but he did not agree. The sons of Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "For Allah's sake!" So he came out. Then al-Hajjaj lowered him into the grave, until he had finished with it.
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir. The narrator Abu al-Huwayrith was declared thiqah (trustworthy) by Ibn Hibban, while Malik and others declared him da'if (weak).
