أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ بْنُ الصَّبَّاحِ الْبَزَّارُ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْكَرِيمِ حَدَّثَنِي إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَقِيلِ بْنِ مَعْقِلٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ وَهْبِ بْنِ مُنَبِّهٍ قَالَ هَذَا مَا سَأَلْتُ عَنْهُ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ فَذَكَرَ أَحَادِيثَ فَقَالَ
إِنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَطَبَ يَوْمًا فَذَكَرَ رَجُلًا مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ قُبِضَ فَكُفِّنَ فِي كَفَنٍ غَيْرِ طَائِلٍ وَقُبِّرَ لَيْلًا فَزَجَرَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَنْ يُقْبَرَ الرَّجُلُ بِلَيْلٍ أَوْ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ إِلَّا أَنْ يُضْطَرَّ إِلَى ذَلِكَ وَقَالَ «إِذَا وَلِيَ أَحَدُكُمْ أَخَاهُ فَلْيُحْسِنْ كَفَنَهُ»

✧ The Prophet ﷺ gave a sermon one day and mentioned a man among his companions who had died and was shrouded in a poor shroud and buried at night. The Prophet ﷺ forbade that a man be buried at night or prayed over unless compelled to do so, and he said, 'When one of you takes charge of his brother, let him make his shroud good.'
