حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنْ ثَابِتٍ، (٢) عَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: مُرَّ بِجِنَازَةٍ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَقَالَ: " أَثْنُوا عَلَيْهَا " (٣) ، فَقَالُوا: كَانَ مَا عَلِمْنَا يُحِبُّ اللهَ وَرَسُولَهُ، وَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا، فَقَالَ: " وَجَبَتْ ". ثُمَّ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ أُخْرَى، فَقَالَ: " أَثْنُوا عَلَيْهَا "، فَقَالُوا: بِئْسَ الْمَرْءُ كَانَ فِي دِينِ اللهِ، فَقَالَ: " وَجَبَتْ، أَنْتُمْ شُهُودُ (٤) اللهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ " (٥)،
