باب الْمَشْىِ أَمَامَ الْجَنَازَةِ

English narration

Narrated by المغيرة بن شعبة الثقفي

Narrated Al-Mughirah ibn Shubah: (I think that the people of Ziyad informed me that he reported on the authority of the Prophet ﷺ: A rider should go behind the bier, and those on foot should walk behind it, in front of it, on its right and on its left keeping near it. Prayer should be offered over an abortion and forgiveness and mercy supplicated for its parents.

النص العربي

حَدَّثَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ بَقِيَّةَ ، عَنْ خَالِدٍ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ ، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ ، وَأَحْسَبُ أَنَّ أَهْلَ زِيَادٍ أَخْبَرُونِي ، أَنَّهُ رَفَعَهُ إِلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، قَالَ : "

الرَّاكِبُ يَسِيرُ خَلْفَ الْجَنَازَةِ ، وَالْمَاشِي يَمْشِي خَلْفَهَا ، وَأَمَامَهَا ، وَعَنْ يَمِينِهَا ، وَعَنْ يَسَارِهَا ، قَرِيبًا مِنْهَا ، وَالسِّقْطُ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ، وَيُدْعَى لِوَالِدَيْهِ بِالْمَغْفِرَةِ وَالرَّحْمَةِ

" .
