حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ عُثْمَانَ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَوْهَبٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ: تُوُفِّيَ رَجُلٌ مِنَّا فَأَتَيْنَا النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لِيُصَلِّيَ عَلَيْهِ قَالَ: " هَلْ تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ؟ " قَالُوا: لَا وَاللهِ مَا تَرَكَ مِنْ شَيْءٍ. قَالَ: " فَهَلْ تَرَكَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ دَيْنٍ؟ " قَالُوا: نَعَمْ. ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ دِرْهَمًا. قَالَ: " فَهَلْ تَرَكَ لَهَا قَضَاءً؟ " قَالُوا: لَا. وَاللهِ مَا تَرَكَ لَهَا مِنْ شَيْءٍ. قَالَ: " فَصَلُّوا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ ". قَالَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ قَضَيْتُ عَنْهُ أَتُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ؟ قَالَ: " إِنْ قَضَيْتَ عَنْهُ بِالْوَفَاءِ صَلَّيْتُ عَلَيْهِ ". قَالَ فَذَهَبَ أَبُو قَتَادَةَ فَقَضَى عَنْهُ. فَقَالَ: " أَوْفَيْتَ مَا عَلَيْهِ؟ " قَالَ: نَعَمْ. فَدَعَا بِهِ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، ، فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ (١)،
Translation
English translation
It is narrated from Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) that one of us passed away. We went to the service of the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) so that he would lead his funeral prayer. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Did he leave anything behind?" The people said, "By Allah, he left nothing behind." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Did he leave any debt upon himself?" The people said, "Yes, eighteen dirhams." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Did he leave anything for its repayment?" The people said, "By Allah, he left nothing behind." The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Then you yourselves perform his funeral prayer." Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) submitted, "O Messenger of Allah! If I pay his debt, will you lead his funeral prayer?" The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said, "If you pay his entire debt, I will lead his funeral prayer." So Abu Qatadah (may Allah be pleased with him) went and paid his debt. The Noble Prophet (ﷺ) asked, "Has the entire debt been paid?" He replied, "Yes!" So the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) led his funeral prayer.
