أَخْبَرَنَا زِيَادُ بْنُ أَيُّوبَ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ وَاصِلٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ وَأَخُوهُ الْمُغِيرَةُ جَمِيعًا عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الرَّاکِبُ خَلْفَ الْجَنَازَةِ وَالْمَاشِي حَيْثُ شَائَ مِنْهَا وَالطِّفْلُ يُصَلَّی عَلَيْهِ
