Praying in a church

لَمَّا نَزَلَ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ طَفِقَ يَطْرَحُ خَمِيصَةً لَهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ ، فَإِذَا اغْتَمَّ بِهَا كَشَفَهَا عَنْ وَجْهِهِ ، فَقَالَ : وَهُوَ كَذَلِكَ ، لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى اتَّخَذُوا قُبُورَ أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ مَسَاجِدَ يُحَذِّرُ مَا صَنَعُوا.

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْيَمَانِ ، قَالَ : أَخْبَرَنَا شُعَيْبٌ ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ ، أَخْبَرَنِي عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُتْبَةَ ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ ، وَعَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ عَبَّاسٍ ، قَالَا :

Translation

Aishah reported: When (death) came upon the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, he began to throw a patterned woollen cloth of his over his face, and when he felt stifled by it, he would uncover his face. And while he was like that, he said, “The curse of Allah be upon the Jews and the Christians! They took the graves of their prophets as places of prayer.” He was warning against what they had done.

Aischa berichtete: Als (der Tod) über den Gesandten Allahs ﷺ kam, begann er, ein gemustertes Wolltuch, das ihm gehörte, über sein Gesicht zu werfen; und wenn ihm darunter die Luft knapp wurde, nahm er es von seinem Gesicht. Und während er so war, sagte er: „Der Fluch Allahs über die Juden und die Christen! Sie haben die Gräber ihrer Propheten zu Gebetsstätten gemacht.“ Er warnte vor dem, was sie getan hatten.

Âişe (r.a.) şöyle rivayet etti: Resûlullah'a ﷺ (ölüm) geldiğinde, desenli yünlü örtüsünü yüzüne atmaya başladı; bunaldığında da onu yüzünden açıyordu. Bu hâldeyken şöyle buyurdu: “Allah'ın laneti Yahudilerin ve Hristiyanların üzerine olsun! Peygamberlerinin kabirlerini mescid edindiler.” Onların yaptıklarından sakındırıyordu.
