أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ قَالَ
مَرِضَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَوَالِي وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ أَحْسَنَ شَيْءٍ عِيَادَةً لِلْمَرِيضِ فَقَالَ «إِذَا مَاتَتْ فَآذِنُونِي» فَمَاتَتْ لَيْلًا فَدَفَنُوهَا وَلَمْ يُعْلِمُوا النَّبِيَّ ﷺ فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ سَأَلَ عَنْهَا فَقَالُوا كَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُوقِظَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ فَأَتَى قَبْرَهَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا «وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا»

✧ A woman from the people of al-'Awali fell ill. The Prophet ﷺ was the best of people in visiting the sick, and he said, 'When she dies, inform me.' She died at night, so they buried her and did not inform the Prophet ﷺ. In the morning he asked about her, and they said, 'We disliked waking you, O Messenger of Allah.' He came to her grave, prayed over her, and said four takbirs.
