أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ جَابِرٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " إِنَّ أَخَاكُمْ قَدْ مَاتَ فَقُومُوا فَصَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ " . فَصَفَفْنَا عَلَيْهِ صَفَّيْنِ .

It was narrated from Jabir that:
the Messenger of Allah said: "Your brother has died, so get up and offer the funeral prayer for him." So we formed two rows for him." (ID)
