حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُصَفَّی الْحِمْصِيُّ حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ إِسْمَعِيلَ بْنِ سَلْمَانَ عَنْ دِينَارٍ أَبِي عُمَرَ عَنْ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ عَنْ عَلِيٍّ قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّی اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَإِذَا نِسْوَةٌ جُلُوسٌ قَالَ مَا يُجْلِسُکُنَّ قُلْنَ نَنْتَظِرُ الْجِنَازَةَ قَالَ هَلْ تَغْسِلْنَ قُلْنَ لَا قَالَ هَلْ تَحْمِلْنَ قُلْنَ لَا قَالَ هَلْ تُدْلِينَ فِيمَنْ يُدْلِي قُلْنَ لَا قَالَ فَارْجِعْنَ مَأْزُورَاتٍ غَيْرَ مَأْجُورَاتٍ
ابن ماجہ · Hadith 1578
It was narrated that 'Ali said: "The Messenger of Allah P.B.U.H went out and saw some women silting, and he said: 'What are you silting here for?' They said: 'We are waiting for the funeral.' He said: 'Are you going to wash the deceased?' They said: 'No.' He said: 'Are you going to lower him into the grave?' They said: 'No.' He said: 'Then go back with a burden of sin and not rewarded.''' (Da'if)
