(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ مَسْعَدَةَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي عُبَيْدٍ ، عَنْ سَلَمَةَ ، قَالَ : كُنْتُ جَالِسًا مَعَ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَأُتِيَ بِجِنَازَةٍ ، فَقَالَ : " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ دَيْنٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : لَا ، قَالَ : " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : لَا ، قَالَ : فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ، ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِأُخْرَى ، فَقَالَ : " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ دَيْنٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : لَا ، قَالَ : " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، ثَلَاثَة دَنَانِيرَ ، قَالَ : فَقَالَ بأصابعه : ثَلَاثَ كَيَّاتٍ ، قَالَ : ثُمَّ أُتِيَ بِالثَّالِثَةِ ، فَقَالَ : " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ دَيْنٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : نَعَمْ ، قَالَ : " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ ؟ " ، قَالُوا : لَا ، قَالَ : " صَلُّوا عَلَى صَاحِبِكُمْ " ، فَقَالَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الْأَنْصَارِ : عَلَيَّ دَيْنُهُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، قَالَ : فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Salamah bin Akwa’ (may Allah be pleased with him) that once I was sitting with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) when a funeral was brought. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: “Did he leave behind any debt?” The people replied, “No.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: “Did he leave any inheritance?” The people replied, “No.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led his funeral prayer. Then another funeral was brought and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked the same: “Did he leave behind any debt?” The people replied, “No.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: “Did he leave any inheritance?” The people replied, “Yes! Three dinars.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) gestured with his fingers and said: “Three marks of Hellfire.” Then a third funeral was brought and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked as before: “Did he leave behind any debt?” The people replied, “Yes!” Then he asked: “Did he leave any inheritance?” The people replied, “Yes!” Then he asked: “Did he leave any inheritance?” The people replied, “No.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Then you should offer the funeral prayer of your companion yourselves.” At this, an Ansari said: “O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! His debt is upon me.” So the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led his funeral prayer as well.
