(48) باب الرُّكُوبِ فِي الْجَنَازَةِ
Narrated Thawban:
An animal was brought to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) while he was going with a funeral. He refused to ride on it. When the funeral was away, the animal was brought to him and he rode on it. He was asked about it. He said: The angels were on their feet. I was not to ride while they were walking. When they went away, I rode. (PT)
