2. Ali has narrated from his father from Hammad ibn ‘Isa from Hariz from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn ‘Abd Allah who has said the following
“Abu ‘Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘A man from Ansar (new Muslims of al-Madinah) of the companions of the Messenger of Allah died. The Messenger of Allah came out and joined the funeral procession walking. Someone from his companions said, “Why do you not ride, O Messenger of Allah?” He replied, “I do not like to ride when angels are walking.” He refused to ride.’”
2ـ عَلِيٌّ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ حَمَّادِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله قَالَ
مَاتَ رَجُلٌ مِنَ الأنْصَارِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ الله (صلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِه) فِي جَنَازَتِهِ يَمْشِي فَقَالَ لَهُ بَعْضُ أَصْحَابِهِ أَ لاَ تَرْكَبُ يَا رَسُولَ الله فَقَالَ إِنِّي لأَكْرَهُ أَنْ أَرْكَبَ وَالْمَلاَئِكَةُ يَمْشُونَ وَأَبَى أَنْ يَرْكَبَ.
