وَحَدَّثَنِي وَحَدَّثَنِي يَحْيَى ، عَنْ مَالِك ، عَنْ
مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَرْمَلَةَ مَوْلَى عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي سُفْيَانَ بْنِ حُوَيْطِبٍ ، أَنَّ زَيْنَبَ بِنْتَ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ تُوُفِّيَتْ وَطَارِقٌ أَمِيرُ الْمَدِينَةِ فَأُتِيَ بِجَنَازَتِهَا بَعْدَ صَلَاةِ الصُّبْحِ ، فَوُضِعَتْ بِالْبَقِيعِ ، قَالَ : وَكَانَ طَارِقٌ يُغَلِّسُ بِالصُّبْحِ ، قَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي حَرْمَلَةَ : فَسَمِعْتُ
عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عُمَرَ ، يَقُولُ لِأَهْلِهَا :
" إِمَّا أَنْ تُصَلُّوا عَلَى جَنَازَتِكُمُ الْآنَ ، وَإِمَّا أَنْ تَتْرُكُوهَا حَتَّى تَرْتَفِعَ الشَّمْسُ "
It is narrated from Muhammad bin Abi Harmalah that Sayyida Zainab bint Abi Salamah (may Allah be pleased with her) (the daughter of Umm al-Mu'mineen Sayyida Umm Salamah, may Allah be pleased with her, from her first husband) passed away, and at that time Tariq was the governor of Madinah. Her funeral was brought after the Fajr prayer and placed in Baqi', and Tariq used to lead the Fajr prayer in darkness. Abi Harmalah said: I heard Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) saying to the people of Sayyida Zainab (may Allah be pleased with her): Either you perform the funeral prayer now, or leave it until the sun has risen high.
