حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ حَازِمٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا نَافِعٌ ، قَالَ : قِيلَ لِابْنِ عُمَرَ ، إِنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، يَقُولُ : سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، يَقُولُ : " مَنْ تَبِعَ جَنَازَةً فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ " ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ : أَكْثَرَ عَلَيْنَا أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَبَعَثَ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ فَسَأَلَهَا ، فَصَدَّقَتْ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ ، فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ : لَقَدْ فَرَّطْنَا فِي قَرَارِيطَ كَثِيرَةٍ .
Nafi' narrated that it was said to Ibn 'Umar that Abu Huraira reported to have heard Allah's Messenger (صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ) as saying: He who follows the bier, for him is the reward of one qirat. Ibn 'Umar said: Abu Huraira narrated it too often. So he sent (a messenger to) 'A'isha to ascertain (the fact). She ('A'isha) testified Abu Huraira. Ibn 'Umar said: We missed so many qirats.
