Majma al-Zawaid — Hadith 4254

وَعَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَ : لَمَّا دُفِنَ سَعْدُ بْنُ مُعَاذٍ ، وَنَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ سَبَّحَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَسَبَّحَ النَّاسُ مَعَهُ طَوِيلًا ، ثُمَّ كَبَّرَ وَكَبَّرَ النَّاسُ ، ثُمَّ قَالُوا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، لِمَ سَبَّحْتَ ؟ قَالَ : " لَقَدْ تَضَايَقَ عَلَى هَذَا الرَّجُلِ الصَّالِحِ قَبْرُهُ حَتَّى فَرَّجَ اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ عَنْهُ " .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَالطَّبَرَانِيُّ فِي الْكَبِيرِ ، وَفِيهِ مَحْمُودُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْجَمُوحِ قَالَ الْحُسَيْنِيُّ : فِيهِ نَظَرٌ . قُلْتُ : وَلَمْ أَجِدْ مَنْ ذَكَرَهُ غَيْرَهُ .
Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with them both) said: When Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him) was buried, we were with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said Subhan Allah, and the people said Subhan Allah with him for a long while. Then he said Allahu Akbar, and the people also said Allahu Akbar. Then the people asked: "Why did you say Subhan Allah?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The grave had become narrow for this righteous man until Allah Almighty made it spacious for him."
Ahmad and al-Tabarani in al-Mu'jam al-Kabir recorded it. Its chain contains Mahmud bin Muhammad bin Abd al-Rahman bin Amr bin al-Jamuh; al-Husayni said: there is room for consideration about him (fihi nazar). (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: I have not found anyone other than him mentioning him.
