“I was present with
Ibn
‘Umar at a funeral. When the body was placed in the niche-grave)
he
said, ‘Bismillah wa fi sabil-illah wa ‘ala millati rasul-illah’
(In
the Name of Allah, for the sake of Allah and according to the
religion
of the Messenger of Allah). When he started to place bricks
in the
niche-grave he said: ‘Allahumma ajirha min ash-shaitani wa
min
‘adhabil-qabr. Allahumma Jafil-arda ‘an janbaiha, wa sa’id
ruhaha, wa
laqqiha minka ridwana (O Allah, protect him from Satan and
from the
torment of the grave; O Allah, keep the earth away from his
two sides
and take his soul up and grant him pleasure from
Yourself).’ I said:
‘O Ibn ‘Umar, is this something that you
heard from the Messenger of
Allah (ﷺ) or is it your own words?’
He said: ‘I could have said
something like that, but this is
something that I heard from the
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ).’”
