باب تَرْكِ الصَّلاَةِ عَلَيْهِمْ ‏

Sunan an-Nasa'i 1955

Shaddad bin Al-Had (رضي الله تعالى عنه) narrated that a man from among the Bedouins came to the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) and believed in him and followed him, then he said, ‘I will emigrate with you.’ The Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) told one of his Companions to look after him. During one battle the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) got some prisoners as spoils of war, and he distributed them, giving him (that Bedouin) a share. His Companions gave him what had been allocated to him. He had been looking after some livestock for them, and when he came they gave him his share. He said, ‘what is this?’ They said, ‘a share that the Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) has allocated to you.’ He took it and brought it to the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) and said. ‘what is this?’ He said, ‘I allocated it to you.’ He said, ‘it is not for this that I follwed you. Rather I followed you so that I might be shot here - and he pointed to his throat - with an arrow and die and enter Paradise.’ He said, ‘if you are sincere toward Allah, Allah will fulfill your wish.’ Shortly after that they got up to fight the enemy, then he was brought to the Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) he had pointed to. The Prophet (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) said, ‘is it him?’ They said, ‘yes.’ He said, he was sincere toward Allah and Allah fulfilled his wish.’ Then the Prophet ( صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) shrouded him in his own cloak and put him in front of him and offered the (funeral) prayer for him. During his supplication he said, ‘O Allah, this is your servant who went out as a emigrant (Muhajir) for your sake and was killed as a martyr; I am a witness to that.

جابر بن عبداللہ رضی الله عنہما کہتے ہیں کہ رسول اللہ ﷺ غزوہ احد کے مقتولین میں سے میں سے دو آدمیوں کو ایک کپڑے میں اکٹھا کرتے، پھر پوچھتے: ”ان دونوں میں کس کو قرآن زیادہ یاد تھا؟“ جب لوگ ان دونوں میں سے ایک کی طرف اشارہ کرتے تو آپ اسے قبر میں پہلے رکھتے، اور فرماتے: ”میں ان پر گواہ ہوں“، آپ نے انہیں ان کے خون سمیت دفن کرنے کا حکم دیا، اور نہ ان کی نماز جنازہ پڑھی گئی ۱؎ اور نہ انہیں غسل دیا گیا۔

Jabir bin Abdullah ( (رضي الله تعالى عنه) a kehte hain ke Rasulullah (صلى الله عليه وآله وسلم) Ghazwah-e-Uhud ke maqtoolin mein se mein se do aadmiyon ko ek kapde mein ikkatha karte, phir poochte: ”In dono mein kis ko Quran zyada yaad tha?“ Jab log in dono mein se ek ki taraf ishara karte to aap usse qabr mein pehle rakhte, aur farmate: ”Main in par gawaah hun“, aap ne unhein un ke khoon samit dafan karne ka hukm diya, aur nah in ki namaz-e-janaza padhi gai 1؎ aur nah inhen ghusl diya gaya.

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ كَعْبِ بْنِ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كَانَ يَجْمَعُ بَيْنَ الرَّجُلَيْنِ مِنْ قَتْلَى أُحُدٍ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ ثُمَّ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ أَيُّهُمَا أَكْثَرُ أَخْذًا لِلْقُرْآنِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَإِذَا أُشِيرَ إِلَى أَحَدِهِمَا قَدَّمَهُ فِي اللَّحْدِ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ أَنَا شَهِيدٌ عَلَى هَؤُلاَءِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ وَأَمَرَ بِدَفْنِهِمْ فِي دِمَائِهِمْ وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَلَمْ يُغَسَّلُوا ‏.‏
