وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ، أنبأ أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَعْقُوبَ، ثنا يَحْيَى بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَحْيَى، ثنا مُسَدَّدٌ، ثنا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، ثنا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ، قَالَ: قَالَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ: " غَسَّلْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَذَهَبْتُ أَنْظُرُ مَا يَكُونُ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ فَلَمْ أَرَ شَيْئًا وَكَانَ طَيِّبًا حَيًّا وَمَيِّتًا، صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ "، وَوَلِيَ دَفْنَهَ وَأَجْنَانَهُ دُونَ النَّاسِ أَرْبَعَةٌ عَلِيٌّ، وَالْعَبَّاسُ، وَالْفَضْلُ، وَصَالِحٌ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمْ، وَلُحِدَ لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَحْدًا وَنُصِبَ عَلَيْهِ اللَّبَنُ نَصْبًا ".
Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I gave the ritual bath (ghusl) to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). I looked to see in him (peace and blessings be upon him) what is usually seen in a dead body, but I saw nothing. I found him (peace and blessings be upon him) pure, both living and dead. His (peace and blessings be upon him) burial was entrusted to four men: Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him), Sayyiduna al-Abbas and Sayyiduna al-Fadl (may Allah be pleased with them both), and Salih (may Allah be pleased with him), the freed slave of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). A niche grave (lahd) was dug for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and unbaked bricks were set upright over it.
