باب مَا جَاءَ فِي شُهُودِ الْجَنَائِزِ
Sunan Ibn Majah 1481
Al-Mughirah bin Shu’bah said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah
(ﷺ)
say: ‘The rider should travel behind the funeral (procession)
but the
one who is walking may walk wherever he wants.”
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحُ بْنُ عُبَادَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ حَيَّةَ، حَدَّثَنِي زِيَادُ بْنُ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ حَيَّةَ، سَمِعَ الْمُغِيرَةَ بْنَ شُعْبَةَ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ يَقُولُ ” الرَّاكِبُ خَلْفَ الْجِنَازَةِ وَالْمَاشِي مِنْهَا حَيْثُ شَاءَ ” .
