Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 12235 — A disbeliever or captive

Sahl al-Sarraj said: Muhammad bin Sirin was asked about some people who had been brought as captives. Their condition was that if they were told to pray they prayed, and if they were not told they did not pray. One of them died; is the funeral prayer to be offered over him? He said: "Has it become clear to you that he is one of the people of Hellfire?" They answered: "No." He said: "Then wash him, shroud him, perfume him, and offer the funeral prayer over him."
