أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو أَحْمَدَ حَمْزَةُ بْنُ الْعَبَّاسِ بْنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ الْحَارِثِ الْعَقَبِيُّ، ثنا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ رَوْحٍ الْمَدَائِنِيُّ، ثنا سَوَادَةُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ نُبَيْطٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ نُبَيْطٍ، عَنْ نُبَيْطِ بْنِ شَرِيطٍ، عَنْ سَالِمِ بْنِ عُبَيْدٍ الْأَشْجَعِيُّ قَالَ: لَمَّا مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ مِنْ أَجْزَعِ النَّاسِ كُلِّهِمْ عَلَيْهِ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ فَذَكَرَ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَى أَنْ قَالَ: فَقَالُوا، يَعْنِي لِأَبِي بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: يَا صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ، أَمَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ؟ قَالَ: " نَعَمْ، مَاتَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "، فَقَالُوا: يَا صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، مَنْ يُغَسِّلُهُ؟ قَالَ: " رِجَالُ أَهْلِ بَيْتِهِ، الْأَدْنَى فَالْأَدْنَى " قَالُوا: يَا صَاحِبَ رَسُولِ اللهِ، فَأَيْنَ تَدْفِنُهُ؟ قَالَ: " ادْفِنُوهُ فِي الْبُقْعَةِ الَّتِي قَبَضَهُ اللهُ فِيهَا، لَمْ يَقْبِضْهُ إِلَّا فِي أَحَبِّ الْبِقَاعِ إِلَيْهِ ".
Sayyiduna Salim bin Ubayd al-Ashja'i (may Allah be pleased with him) said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, the most distressed of all the people was Sayyiduna Umar bin al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him). They said to Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him): O Companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Has the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away? He said: Yes, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has passed away. They said: O Companion of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)! Who will wash him (peace and blessings be upon him)? He said: The close members of his (peace and blessings be upon him) household. Then the people said: O Companion of the Messenger of Allah! Where will he (peace and blessings be upon him) be buried? He said: Bury him (peace and blessings be upon him) in the very place where his (peace and blessings be upon him) soul was taken; he (peace and blessings be upon him) was taken in the place beloved to him.
