باب مَا جَاءَ فِي الشَّقِّ
Sunan Ibn Majah 1557
It was
narrated that Anas bin Malik said:
“When the Prophet (ﷺ)
died,
there was a man in Al-Madinah who used to make a niche in the
grave
and another who used to dig graves without a niche. They said:
‘Let
us pray Istikharah to our Lord and call for them both, and
whichever
of them comes first, we will let him do it.’ So they were
both sent
for, and the one who used to make the niche-grave came
first, so they
made a niche-grave for the Prophet (ﷺ).”
حَدَّثَنَا مَحْمُودُ بْنُ غَيْلاَنَ، حَدَّثَنَا هَاشِمُ بْنُ الْقَاسِمِ، حَدَّثَنَا مُبَارَكُ بْنُ فَضَالَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي حُمَيْدٌ الطَّوِيلُ، عَنْ أَنَسِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، قَالَ: لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ النَّبِيُّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ كَانَ بِالْمَدِينَةِ رَجُلٌ يَلْحَدُ وَآخَرُ يَضْرَحُ. فَقَالُوا: نَسْتَخِيرُ رَبَّنَا وَنَبْعَثُ إِلَيْهِمَا فَأَيُّهُمَا سَبَقَ تَرَكْنَاهُ . فَأُرْسِلَ إِلَيْهِمَا فَسَبَقَ صَاحِبُ اللَّحْدِ. فَلَحَدُوا لِلنَّبِيِّ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ .
