حدَّثَناه أبو الحسن أحمد بن محمد العَنَزي، حدثنا محمد بن عبد الرحمن السَّامي، حدثنا سعيد بن منصور، حدثنا أبو معاوية، عن ابن جُرَيج، عن أبي الزُّبير، عن جابرٍ قال: نهى رسول الله ﷺ عن تَجصِيص القبور، والكتابِ فيها، والبناءِ عليها، والجلوسِ عليها (1). هذه الأسانيد صحيحةٌ وليس العملُ عليها، فإنَّ أئمّة المسلمين من الشرق إلى الغرب مكتوبٌ على قبورهم، وهو عملٌ أَخذ به الخَلَفُ عن السَّلف (1).
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade plastering graves, writing on them, building over them and sitting on them.
These chains are sahih (authentic), but (in practice) they are not acted upon, for the graves of the Imams of the Muslims from the East to the West have writing on them, and this is a practice that the later generations (khalaf) took from the earlier ones (salaf).

أخبرنا عبد الله بن محمد بن موسى، حدثنا إسماعيل بن قُتيبة، حدثنا بن أبو بكر بن أبي شَيْبة، حدثنا وكيع، عن الصَّلْت بن بَهْرام، عن الحارث بن وَهْب، عن الصُّنَابحيِّ قال: قال رسول الله ﷺ: "لا تزال أُمتي - أو هذه الأمة - في مُسْكةٍ من دِينِها ما لم يَكِلُوا الجنائزَ إلى أهلها" (2).
هذا حديث صحيح الإسناد إن كان الصُّنابِحي هذا عبدَ الله، فإن كان عبدَ الرحمن بن عُسَيلة الصُّنابِحي (3) فإنه يُختَلف في سماعه من النبيِّ ﷺ، ولم يُخرجاه (4).

Al-Sunabihi narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "My Ummah - or this Ummah - will remain firmly established upon its religion as long as it does not leave funerals to their families alone (that is, the whole community and society continue to take part in them)."
This hadith has a sahih (authentic) chain provided that this al-Sunabihi is "Abdullah"; but if he is Abd al-Rahman bin Usaylah al-Sunabihi, then there is disagreement about his having heard from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him); and the two Shaykhs (Bukhari and Muslim) did not record it.
