Chapter 77

(77) Chapter. Can the dead body be taken out of its grave and Lahd for some reason?

English narration

Narrated by موسى بن أبي عيسى الغفاري

Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) came to `Abdullah bin Ubai (a hypocrite) after his death and he has been laid in his pit (grave). He ordered (that he be taken out of the grave) and he was taken out. Then he placed him on his knees and threw some of his saliva on him and clothed him in his (the Prophet's) own shirt. Allah knows better (why he did so). `Abdullah bin Ubai had given his shirt to Al-Abbas to wear. Abu Harun said, "Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) at that time had two shirts and the son of `Abdullah bin Ubai said to him, 'O Allah's Messenger (ﷺ)! Clothe my father in your shirt which has been in contact with your skin.' ' Sufyan added, "Thus people think that the Prophet (ﷺ) clothed `Abdullah bin Tubal in his shirt in lieu of what he (Abdullah) had done (for Al `Abbas, the Prophet's uncle.)"

حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، قَالَ عَمْرٌو سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا , قَالَ : "

أَتَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أُبَيٍّ بَعْدَ مَا أُدْخِلَ حُفْرَتَهُ ، فَأَمَرَ بِهِ فَأُخْرِجَ ، فَوَضَعَهُ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ ، وَنَفَثَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ رِيقِهِ ، وَأَلْبَسَهُ قَمِيصَهُ

" ، فَاللَّهُ أَعْلَمُ , وَكَانَ كَسَا عَبَّاسًا قَمِيصًا ، قَالَ سُفْيَانُ : وَقَالَ أَبُو هَارُونَ : وَكَانَ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَمِيصَانِ ، فَقَالَ لَهُ ابْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، أَلْبِسْ أَبِي قَمِيصَكَ الَّذِي يَلِي جِلْدَكَ ؟ قَالَ سُفْيَانُ : فَيُرَوْنَ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَلْبَسَ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ قَمِيصَهُ مُكَافَأَةً لِمَا صَنَعَ .
