Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 11792 — Those who said five takbirs
١١٧٩٢ - حدثنا وكيع عن إسماعيل عن الشعبي عن علقمة بن قيس أنه قدم من الشام فقال لعبد اللَّه: إني رأيت معاذ بن جبل وأصحابه بالشام يكبرون على ⦗٤٥⦘ الجنائز خمسًا (فوقتوا) (١) لنا (وقتا) (٢) نتابعكم عليه، قال: فأطرق عبد اللَّه ساعة ثم قال: كبروا ما كبر إمامكم لا وقت ولا عدد (٣).
Alqamah bin Qays said: When I returned from Syria, I said to Sayyiduna Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him): In Syria I saw Sayyiduna Mu'adh bin Jabal (may Allah be pleased with him) and his companions saying five takbirs in the funeral prayer. Fix a number for us so that we may follow it. He remained silent for a while with his head lowered, then said: Say as many takbirs as your imam says; no number is fixed.
