حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ ثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَوْنٍ ثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ح وَحَدَّثَنَا الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ التُّسْتَرِيُّ ثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ ثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ وَمُحَاضِرُ بْنُ الْمُوَرِّعِ كُلُّهُم عَنْ مُجَالِدٍ عَنِ الشَّعْبِيِّ عَنْ مُغِيرَةَ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ قَالَ
«كُنْتُ فِيمَنْ حَفَرَ قَبْرَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ» قَالَ فَلَحَدْنَا لَهُ لَحْدًا فَلَمَّا أُدْخِلَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ الْقَبْرَ طَرَحْتُ الْفَأْسَ ثُمَّ قُلْتُ الْفَأْسَ الْفَأْسَ فَنَزَلَتُ فَوَضَعْتُ يَدَي عَلَى اللَّحْدِ وَكَانَ يَقُولُ الْمُغِيرَةُ «أَنَا أَقْرَبُ النَّاسِ عَهْدًا بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ»

✧ 'I was among those who dug the grave of the Prophet ﷺ.' He said: We dug a lahd for him. When the Prophet ﷺ was placed in the grave, I threw down the axe, then I said, 'The axe, the axe.' So I descended and placed my hands on the lahd. Al-Mughira used to say, 'I am the closest of people in time to the Messenger of God ﷺ.'
