Musnad Abi Ya'la 6746 — one day we were with the Messenger of Allah ﷺ

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Amr (may Allah be pleased with them both) that one day we were with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) at the burial of a deceased person. When he (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished and was returning, he stopped in the middle of the road. Then we saw a woman coming towards us, whom we thought he (peace and blessings be upon him) perhaps did not recognise. But when she came near, it turned out that she was Sayyidah Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her). Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked her: "O Fatimah, what brought you out of your house?" She replied: "O Messenger of Allah, I came to the people of this house to express sympathy with them over their deceased, or to offer them condolences" — the narrator is unsure which word was used. Rabi'ah (may Allah have mercy on him) said: Then the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "Perhaps you went with them, the people of the funeral, as far as al-Kuda (the graveyard)?" She replied: "Ma'adh Allah (I seek refuge with Allah)! I have heard from you (peace and blessings be upon him) the warning about it that you (peace and blessings be upon him) mention." At this he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Had you gone to the graveyard, you would not have seen Paradise until your grandfather (that is, your mother's father) or your grandfather (that is, your father's father) sees it" — this doubt is from the narrator Abu Yahya. The narrator said: I asked Rabi'ah (may Allah have mercy on him) about the word al-Kuda, and he said: I think it means the graves (the graveyard). Then, when I saw Rabi'ah (may Allah have mercy on him) unsure about its meaning, I met Yazid bin Abi Habib (may Allah have mercy on him), told him the hadith of Rabi'ah (may Allah have mercy on him) and asked him the meaning of al-Kuda, and he too confirmed that it means the graveyard.
