Bayhaqi 6988 — Those who said he gives salam to his right and his left

أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو حَامِدِ بْنُ أَبِي الْعَبَّاسِ الزُّوزَنِيُّ، ثنا أَبُو بَكْرٍ الشَّافِعِيُّ، ثنا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَسْلَمَةَ، ثنا يَزِيدُ بْنُ هَارُونَ، أنبأ شَرِيكٌ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الْهَجَرِيِّ، قَالَ: أَمَّنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ أَبِي أَوْفَى عَلَى جِنَازَةِ ابْنَتِهِ فَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا، فَمَكَثَ سَاعَةً حَتَّى ظَنَنَّا أَنَّهُ سَيُكَبِّرُ خَمْسًا، ثُمَّ سَلَّمَ عَنْ يَمِينِهِ وَعَنْ شِمَالِهِ، فَلَمَّا انْصَرَفَ، قُلْنَا لَهُ: مَا هَذَا؟ قَالَ: " إِنِّي لَا أَزِيدُكُمْ عَلَى مَا رَأَيْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَصْنَعُ "، أَوْ " هَكَذَا صَنَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "، ثُمَّ رَكِبَ دَابَّتَهَ، وَقَالَ لِلْغُلَامِ: " أَيْنَ أَنَا؟ " قَالَ: أَمَامَ الْجِنَازَةِ، قَالَ: " أَلَمْ أَنْهَكَ "، وَكَانَ قَدْ كُفَّ يَعْنِي بَصَرُهُ ".
Ibrahim al-Hajari said: We had Abdullah bin Abi Awfa (may Allah be pleased with him) lead us in the funeral prayer of his daughter. He said four takbirs, then remained silent for a while. We thought he might say a fifth takbir; then he gave the salam to his right and his left. When he finished, we said: What was this? He said: I will not do more than what I saw the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) doing; he (peace and blessings be upon him) used to do it like this, or he said: he (peace and blessings be upon him) did it like this. Then he mounted his riding animal and said to the servant: Where am I? He said: In front of the funeral. He said: Did I not forbid you? He had become blind.
