Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ أَخْبَرَنِي أَبِي أَنَّ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ، صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يَدْرُوا أَيْنَ يَقْبُرُونَ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حَتَّى قَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ لَنْ يُقْبَرَ نَبِيٌّ إِلَّا حَيْثُ يَمُوتُ فَأَخَّرُوا فِرَاشَهُ وَحَفَرُوا لَهُ تَحْتَ فِرَاشِهِ.
English Translation
Hadrat Ibn Juraij said: My father told me that the Companions of the Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) did not know where to bury the Noble Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) until Hadrat Abu Bakr said: I heard the Beloved Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) say: `A Prophet is not to be buried except where he died.” So they removed his bed and dug a grave for him beneath
