The Book of Funerals

Sahih (authentic)by Al-Albani

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ بْنِ سَهْلٍ، قَالَ مَرِضَتِ امْرَأَةٌ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْعَوَالِي وَكَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَحْسَنَ شَىْءٍ عِيَادَةً لِلْمَرِيضِ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا مَاتَتْ فَآذِنُونِي ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَمَاتَتْ لَيْلاً فَدَفَنُوهَا وَلَمْ يُعْلِمُوا النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَلَمَّا أَصْبَحَ سَأَلَ عَنْهَا فَقَالُوا كَرِهْنَا أَنْ نُوقِظَكَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ فَأَتَى قَبْرَهَا فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا ‏.‏

It was narrated that Abu Umamah bin Sahi said:"A woman from among the people of Al-'Awali fell sick and the Prophet was the best in visiting the sick. He said: 'When she dies, inform me.' She died at night and they buried her without telling the Prophet. The following morning he asked about her and they said: we did not like to wake you, O Messenger of Allah.' So he went to her grave and offered the funeral prayer for her and said Takbir four times

Rapporté par Abu Umamah bin Sahi : Une femme parmi les gens d’Al-‘Awali est tombée malade et le Prophète ﷺ était le meilleur pour rendre visite aux malades. Il a dit : "Quand elle mourra, informez-moi." Elle est morte pendant la nuit et ils l’ont enterrée sans prévenir le Prophète ﷺ. Le lendemain matin, il a demandé après elle et ils ont dit : "Nous n’avons pas voulu te réveiller, ô Messager d’Allah." Alors il est allé à sa tombe, a accompli la prière funéraire pour elle et a fait le Takbir quatre fois
