Hadith 1218
۞
38. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from from Salama ibn al-Khattab from Ali Ibn Sayf from ‘Amr Ibn Shimr from Jabir from Abu Ja‘far (AS) who has said the following
“When the Holy Prophet (SAW) passed away, the angels, Al Muhajirun and Al Ansar prayed over his body group after group.”
The narrator has said that Amir al-Mu’minin Ali (AS) has said: “I heard the Messenger of Allah say in good health, “This verse is revealed to me about praying for me after Allah will take me away from this world. “God showers His blessings upon the Prophet and the angels seek forgiveness for him. Believers, pray for the Prophet and greet him with, “Peace be with you.” [33:56]
38ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ سَلَمَةَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ عَنْ عَلِيِّ بْنِ سَيْفٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ شِمْرٍ عَنْ جَابِرٍ عَنْ ابي جعفر (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) قَالَ
لَمَّا قُبِضَ النَّبِيُّ (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) صَلَّتْ عَلَيْهِ الْمَلائِكَةُ وَالْمُهَاجِرُونَ وَالانْصَارُ فَوْجاً فَوْجاً قَالَ وَقَالَ أَمِيرُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ (عَلَيْهِ السَّلام) سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ الله (صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) يَقُولُ فِي صِحَّتِهِ وَسَلامَتِهِ إِنَّمَا أُنْزِلَتْ هَذِهِ الايَةُ عَلَيَّ فِي الصَّلاةِ عَلَيَّ بَعْدَ قَبْضِ الله لِي إِنَّ الله وَمَلائِكَتَهُ يُصَلُّونَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ يا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا صَلُّوا عَلَيْهِ وَسَلِّمُوا تَسْلِيماً.
