حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، عَنْ زَائِدَةَ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَقِيلٍ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، " أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَفَّنَ حَمْزَةَ بْنَ عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ فِي نَمِرَةٍ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ " . قَالَ : وَفِي الْبَاب ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ ، وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ، وَعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مُغَفَّلٍ ، وَابْنِ عُمَرَ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : حَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ ، وَقَدْ رُوِيَ فِي كَفَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رِوَايَاتٌ مُخْتَلِفَةٌ ، وَحَدِيثُ عَائِشَةَ أَصَحُّ الْأَحَادِيثِ الَّتِي رُوِيَتْ فِي كَفَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى حَدِيثِ عَائِشَةَ عِنْدَ أَكْثَرِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَغَيْرِهِمْ ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ الثَّوْرِيُّ : يُكَفَّنُ الرَّجُلُ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ إِنْ شِئْتَ فِي قَمِيصٍ وَلِفَافَتَيْنِ ، وَإِنْ شِئْتَ فِي ثَلَاثِ لَفَائِفَ ، وَيُجْزِي ثَوْبٌ وَاحِدٌ إِنْ لَمْ يَجِدُوا ثَوْبَيْنِ ، وَالثَّوْبَانِ يُجْزِيَانِ ، وَالثَّلَاثَةُ لِمَنْ وَجَدَهَا أَحَبُّ إِلَيْهِمْ ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ : الشَّافِعِيِّ ، وَأَحْمَدَ ، وَإِسْحَاق ، قَالُوا : تُكَفَّنُ الْمَرْأَةُ فِي خَمْسَةِ أَثْوَابٍ .
´Jabir bin Abdullah narrated:` "The Messenger of Allah shrouded Hamzah bin Abdul-Muttalib in one cloth of Namirah."
Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
1:
The narration of Ali has been sourced by Ibn Abi Shaybah, Ahmad, and Bazzar with the wording of «كُفِّنَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَبْعَةِ أَثْوَابٍ», but in its chain is Abdullah bin Muhammad bin Aqil, who is of poor memory (sayi’ al-hifz). It is not correct to use his hadith as evidence when it contradicts the trustworthy narrators.
2:
Its evidence is the hadith of Layla bint Qanif al-Thaqafiyyah radi Allahu anha, which has been sourced by Ahmad and Abu Dawud. Its wording is as follows:
Layla says: “I was among those who performed the ritual bath (ghusl) for Umm Kulthum, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, at the time of her death. The first thing the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam gave us was the waist-wrapper (hiqā’), then the shirt (dir‘), then the head-cover (khimār), then the outer garment (milhafa), then she was wrapped after that in another cloth. She said: And the Messenger of Allah sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was sitting at the door with her shroud, handing us the garments one by one.” However, this narration is weak; its narrator, Nuh bin Hakim al-Thaqafi, is unknown (majhool).
