Hadith 23657

حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ ثَعْلَبَةَ بْنِ صُعَيْرٍ ، أَنّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ : " زَمِّلُوهُمْ فِي ثِيَابِهِمْ " قَالَ : وَجَعَلَ يَدْفِنُ فِي الْقَبْرِ الرَّهْطَ ، قَالَ : وَقَالَ : " قَدِّمُوا أَكْثَرَهُمْ قُرْآنًا " .
It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Thalabah (may Allah be pleased with him) that on the occasion of the Battle of Uhud, the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Wrap the martyrs in their own clothes." Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) began to bury several people in a single grave and kept saying: "Of them, the one who has memorized the most Qur'an, lower him into the grave first."
