حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كَامِلٍ حَدَّثَنَا زُهَيْرٌ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى الْجَابِرُ أَبُو الْحَارِثِ التَّيْمِيُّ أَنَّ أَبَا مَاجدٍ رَجُلٌ مِنْ بَنِي حَنِيفَةَ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ قَالَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ سَأَلْنَا نَبِيَّنَا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَنْ السَّيْرِ بِالْجِنَازَةِ فَقَالَ السَّيْرُ مَا دُونَ الْخَبَبِ فَإِنْ يَكُ خَيْرًا تُعْجَلْ إِلَيْهِ أَوْ قَالَ لِتُعْجَلْ إِلَيْهِ وَإِنْ يَكُ سِوَى ذَاكَ فَبُعْدًا لِأَهْلِ النَّارِ الْجِنَازَةُ مَتْبُوعَةٌ وَلَا تَتْبَعُ لَيْسَ مِنَّا مَنْ تَقَدَّمَهَا.
الترجمة الإنجليزية
Abu Kamil told us, Zuhayr told us, Yahya al-Jabir Abu al-Harith al-Taymi told us, that Abu Majid, a man from Banu Hanifah, told him, saying: Abdullah ibn Mas'ud said: We asked our Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, about the pace of walking with the funeral bier, and he said: "The pace should be less than a trot; if the deceased was righteous, then it is being hastened toward good" — or he said "let it be hastened toward it" — "and if it is other than that, then let it be far from the people of the Fire that they be carried further. The bier is to be followed, not to be followed by others; whoever walks ahead of it is not one of us."
