Discussion on Supplications and Remembrances
Supplicating for the deceased is Sunnah
Hadith 443
405- وعن أمه أنها سمعت عائشة زوج النبى صلى الله عليه وسلم تقول: قام رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ذات ليلة فلبس ثيابه ثم خرج، قالت: فأمرت جاريتي بريرة تتبعه فتبعته حتى جاء البقيع، فوقف فى أدناه ما شاء الله أن يقف ثم انصرف، فسبقته بريرة فأخبرتني، فلم أذكر له شيئا حتى أصبحت، ثم ذكرت له ذلك فقال: ”إني بعثت إلى أهل البقيع لأصلي عليهم.“ كمل حديث باب العين فجميعهم مئة حديث وثمانية وعشرون حديثا.
It is narrated from the wife of the Prophet, Sayyida Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her), that one night the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) got up, put on his clothes, and then went outside. I ordered my (freed) slave woman Barirah, so she followed him to Baqi' (the cemetery). The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) stood there for as long as Allah willed, then returned, and Barirah came and informed me before him. I did not speak to him about this matter until morning, then I told him, and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "I was sent to the people of Baqi' so that I may supplicate for them." The chapter of 'Ayn's hadiths is completed, which are in total one hundred and twenty-eight (128) hadiths.
