(56) باب إِذَا حَضَرَ جَنَائِزَ رِجَالٍ وَنِسَاءٍ مَنْ يُقَدِّمُ
Yahya ibn Subayh said:
Ammar client of al-Harith ibn Nawfal told me that he attended the funeral of Umm Kulthum, and her son. The body of the boy was placed near the imam. I objected to it. Among the people there were Ibn Abbas, AbuSa'id al-Khudri, AbuQatadah and AbuHurayrah. They said: This is the sunnah (established practice of the Prophet). (PT)
