Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 12153 — Levelling the grave, and reports
١٢١٥٣ - حدثنا عبد الأعلى عن محمد بن إسحاق عن ثمامة بن (شفي) (١) قال: خرجنا غزاة في زمان معاوية إلى هذا الدرب وعلينا فضالة بن عبيد قال: فتوفي ابن (عم) (٢) لي (يقال له) (٣) نافع، فقام معنا فضالة على حضرته، فلما دفناه قال: خففوا عن حفرته (فإن) (٤) رسول اللَّه ﷺ كان يأمر بتسوية القبور (٥).
Thumamah bin Shufayy says: We set out on a military expedition in the time of Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah (may Allah be pleased with him) towards this mountain pass, and our commander was Sayyiduna Fadalah bin Ubayd (may Allah be pleased with him). A cousin of mine called Nafi' passed away, and Sayyiduna Fadalah stood with us at his grave. When we had buried him, he said: "Make his grave light and level, for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) used to order that graves be levelled."
