أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْأَزْدِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ قَالَ أَخْبَرَنَا وَهْبُ بْنُ جَرِيرٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي قَالَ سَمِعْتُ مُحَمَّدَ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ يَقُولُ حَدَّثَنِي الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ سَمِعْتُ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ رِضْوَانُ اللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ يَقُولُ
لَمَّا تُوُفِّيَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ أَتَى ابْنُهُ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أُبَيِّ ابْنِ سَلُولٍ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَذَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ أُبَيٍّ قَدْ وَضَعْنَاهُ فَصَلِّ عَلَيْهِ فَقَامَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَلَمَّا قَامَ يُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ قُمْتُ فِي صَدْرِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ أَتُصَلِّي عَلَى عَدُوِّ اللَّهِ الْقَائِلِ يَوْمَ كَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا وَالْقَائِلِ يَوْمَ كَذَا كَذَا وَكَذَا أُعَدِّدُ أَيَّامَهُ الْخَبِيثَةَ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «عَنِّي يَا عُمَرُ» حَتَّى إِذَا أَكْثَرْتُ قَالَ «عَنِّي يَا عُمَرُ فَإِنِّي قَدْ خُيِّرْتُ فَاخْتَرْتُ إِنَّ اللَّهَ يَقُولُ {اسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ أَوْ لَا تَسْتَغْفِرْ لَهُمْ} وَلَوْ أَعْلَمُ أَنِّي زِدْتُ عَلَى السَّبْعِينَ غُفِرَ لَهُ لَزِدْتُ» قَالَ عُمَرُ فَعَجَبًا لِجُرْأَتِي عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَاللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَعْلَمُ فَلَمَّا قَالَ لِي ذَلِكَ انْصَرَفْتُ عَنْهُ فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ ثُمَّ مَشَى مَعَهُ فَقَامَ عَلَى حُفْرَتِهِ حَتَّى دُفِنَ ثُمَّ انْصَرَفَ فَوَاللَّهِ مَا لَبِثَ إِلَّا يَسِيرًا حَتَّى أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا {وَلَا تُصَلِّ عَلَى أَحَدٍ مِنْهُمْ مَاتَ أَبَدًا وَلَا تَقُمْ عَلَى قَبْرِهِ} فَمَا صَلَّى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَلَى مُنَافِقٍ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ وَلَا قَامَ عَلَى قَبْرِهِ

✧ "I heard Umar ibn Al-Khattab, may Allah be pleased with him, saying: When Abdullah ibn Ubay died, his son Abdullah ibn Abdullah ibn Ubay ibn Salul came to the Messenger of Allahﷺ and said: O Messenger of Allah, this is Abdullah ibn Ubay, we have buried him, so please pray for him. The Messenger of Allahﷺ stood up to pray for him. When he stood up to pray, I stood in front of the chest of the Messenger of Allahﷺ and I said: O Prophet of Allah, are you praying for the enemy of Allah who said such and such on such and such day, and the one who said such and such on such and such day, I number his evil days. The Messenger of Allahﷺ smiled and said: Leave me, O Umar. When I persisted, he said: Leave me, O Umar. I was given a choice, and I chose, for Allah says, 'Ask forgiveness for them, or do not ask forgiveness for them.' If I knew that by adding more than seventy, he would be forgiven, I would have added more." Umar said: I was amazed at my boldness to the Messenger of Allahﷺ but Allah and His Messenger know best. When he said that to me, I turned away from him and prayed for him, then I walked with him and stood by his grave until he was buried. Then he turned away, and by Allah, he did not stay except for a short while until Allah revealed, "And never pray [the funeral prayer, O Muhammad], over any of them who has died - ever - or stand at his grave." So the Messenger of Allahﷺ did not pray for a hypocrite after that, nor did he stand at his grave."
