قَالَ مُسَدَّدٌ : حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي حَصِينٍ ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ طَلْحَةَ ، قَالَ : صَلَّيْتُ مَعَ عُثْمَانَ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - عَلَى جَنَائِزِ رِجَالٍ وَنِسَاءٍ ، فَجَعَلَ الرِّجَالَ مِمَّا يَلِيهِ ، وَالنِّسَاءَ مِمَّا يَلِي الْقِبْلَةَ ، وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا .
It is narrated from Musa bin Talhah (may Allah have mercy on him) that he said: I prayed with Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) over several funerals of men and women together. He (may Allah be pleased with him) placed the men's biers on his own side, that is, near the imam, and the women's biers toward the qiblah, and he (may Allah be pleased with him) said four takbirs in the funeral prayer.
وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ : حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ حُمَيْدٍ ، عَنْ بَكْرٍ الْمُزَنِيِّ ، عَنْ رَجُلٍ مِنَ الصَّحَابَةِ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمْ - أَنَّهُ كَانَ يَجْعَلُ الرِّجَالَ مِنْ وَرَاءِ النِّسَاءِ ، وَالنِّسَاءَ مِمَّا يَلِيهِ .
Ibn Abi Umar (may Allah have mercy on him) relates: Bishr bin al-Sari narrated to us by way of Hammad, who narrates from Humayd, and he from Bakr al-Muzani, that it is reported from one of the eminent Companions (may Allah be pleased with him) among the noble Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) that (when offering the funeral prayer) he would place the men's biers behind the women's, while placing the women's biers on his own side, that is, near the imam.
وَقَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ : حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَزِيدَ الْوَاسِطِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ عُمَارَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ عَقِيصًا قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْحَسَنَ بْنَ عَلِيٍّ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا - يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَقُولُ : إِذَا حَضَرَتِ الْجِنَازَةُ وَحَضَرَ الْأَمِيرُ ، فَالْأَمِيرُ أَحَقُّ بِالصَّلَاةِ عَلَيْهَا .
Sayyiduna al-Hasan bin Ali (may Allah be pleased with them both) relates: I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "When a funeral is present (for the prayer) and the amir (the ruler of the time or the one in charge) is also present there, then that amir has the most right to lead the prayer over that funeral."
حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ ، أَنْبَأَنَا حُسَيْنٌ الْمُعَلِّمُ ، عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - قَالَ : إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - صَلَّى عَلَى أُمِّ فُلَانٍ فِي نِفَاسِهَا ، فَقَامَ وَسَطَهَا .
رِجَالُهُ ثِقَاتٌ ، إِلَّا أَنَّهُ مَعْلُولٌ بِالْمَحْفُوظِ بِهَذَا الْإِسْنَادِ عَنِ ابْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ ، لَا عَنْ عِمْرَانَ ، وَحَدِيثُ سَمُرَةَ - رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ - فِي الصَّحِيحِ .

It is reported from Sayyiduna Imran bin Husayn (may Allah be pleased with him): "The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) led the funeral prayer of a woman who had died in the state of nifas (postnatal bleeding after childbirth), and he (peace and blessings be upon him) (while leading the funeral prayer) stood opposite the middle of her body."
All the narrators of this narration are thiqat (trustworthy); however, technically this hadith is ma'lul (defective), because the better-preserved (mahfuz) narration from Ibn Buraydah with this same chain is reported from Sayyiduna Samurah bin Jundub (may Allah be pleased with him), not from Sayyiduna Imran, and that hadith of Sayyiduna Samurah (may Allah be pleased with him) is found in the books of Sahih.
