أَخْبَرَنَا النَّضْرُ بْنُ شُمَيْلٍ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا يَعْلَى بْنُ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يَسَارٍ قَالَ:

إِنَّ عَمْرَو بْنَ حُرَيْثٍ عَادَ حَسَنًا، وَعِنْدَهُ عَلِيٌّ ؓ... الْحَدِيثَ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَمْرٌو: مَا تَقُولُ فِي الْمَشْيِ أَمَامَ الْجِنَازَةِ ؟ فَقَالَ: فَضْلُ الْمَاشِي خَلْفَهَا عَلَى الْمَاشِي أَمَامَهَا كَفَضْلِ الْمَكْتُوبَةِ عَلَى التَّطَوُّعِ. قَالَ: فَإِنِّي رَأَيْتُ أَبَا بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرَ ؓ يَمْشِيَانِ أَمَامَهَا، فَقَالَ: إِنَّهُمَا كَرِهَا أَنْ يُحْرِجَا النَّاسَ

✧ Amr b. Hurayth visited al-Hasan while Ali ؓ was with him... the hadith. Amr said to him: "What do you say about walking in front of the funeral procession?" He said: "The superiority of walking behind it over walking in front of it is like the superiority of the obligatory prayer over the voluntary prayer." He said: "But I saw Abu Bakr and Umar ؓ walking in front of it." He said: "They disliked causing hardship to the people."
