باب مَا جَاءَ فِي أَيْنَ يَقُومُ الإِمَامُ إِذَا صَلَّى عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ
Sunan Ibn Majah 1494
It was
narrated that Abu Ghalib said:
“I saw Anas bin Malik offering
the
funeral prayer for a man, and he stood level with his head. Then
another funeral was brought, that of a woman, and they said: ‘O Abu
Hamzah! Offer the funeral prayer for her.’ So he stood level with
the
middle of the bed (the body was upon). ‘Ala’ bin Ziyad said
to him: ‘O
Abu Hamzah! Is this how you saw the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ) standing
in relation to the body of a man and a woman as you
have stood?’ He
said: ‘Yes.’ Then he turned to us and said:
‘Remember this.’”
حَدَّثَنَا نَصْرُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْجَهْضَمِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ هَمَّامٍ، عَنْ أَبِي غَالِبٍ، قَالَ رَأَيْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ صَلَّى عَلَى جِنَازَةِ رَجُلٍ فَقَامَ حِيَالَ رَأْسِهِ فَجِيءَ بِجِنَازَةٍ أُخْرَى بِامْرَأَةٍ فَقَالُوا يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ صَلِّ عَلَيْهَا . فَقَامَ حِيَالَ وَسَطِ السَّرِيرِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْعَلاَءُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ يَا أَبَا حَمْزَةَ هَكَذَا رَأَيْتَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ قَامَ مِنَ الْجِنَازَةِ مُقَامَكَ مِنَ الرَّجُلِ وَقَامَ مِنَ الْمَرْأَةِ مُقَامَكَ مِنَ الْمَرْأَةِ قَالَ نَعَمْ . فَأَقْبَلَ عَلَيْنَا فَقَالَ احْفَظُوا .
