Funerals (Al-Janaa'iz)
مَنْ يُقَدَّمُ فِي اللَّحْدِ
Who should be put first in the Lahd
وَأَخْبَرَنَا الأَوْزَاعِيُّ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ لِقَتْلَى أُحُدٍ " أَىُّ هَؤُلاَءِ أَكْثَرُ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ ". فَإِذَا أُشِيرَ لَهُ إِلَى رَجُلٍ قَدَّمَهُ فِي اللَّحْدِ قَبْلَ صَاحِبِهِ. وَقَالَ جَابِرٌ فَكُفِّنَ أَبِي وَعَمِّي فِي نَمِرَةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ. وَقَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا مَنْ، سَمِعَ جَابِرًا ـ رضى الله عنه.
Narrated Jabir bin `Abdullah: (Jabir bin `Abdullahadded): Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to ask about the martyrs of Uhud as to which of them knew more of theQur'an." And when one of them was pointed out as having more of it he would put him first in thegrave and then his companions. (Jabir added): My father and my uncle were shrouded in one sheet.
