Chapter 8 · Chapter Regarding Funeralsحَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاق الشَّيْبَانِيِّ، عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ: مَاتَ رَجُلٌ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَعُودُهُ، فَدَفَنُوهُ بِاللَّيْلِ، فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ أَعْلَمُوهُ، فَقَالَ: مَا مَنَعَكُمْ أَنْ تُعْلِمُونِي ، قَالُوا: كَانَ اللَّيْلُ، وَكَانَتِ الظُّلْمَةُ فَكَرِهْنَا أَنْ نَشُقَّ عَلَيْكَ، فَأَتَى قَبْرَهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ .

“A man died whom the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) used to visit, and they buried him at night. When morning came, they told him. He said: ‘What kept you from telling me?’ They said: ‘It was night and it was dark, and we did not like to cause you any inconvenience.’ Then he went to the grave and offered the funeral prayer for him.”
