5. Muhammad ibn Yahya has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn ‘Isa from ibn Faddal from ibn Bukayr from certain persons of his people who has said the following
“About the case of the dead bodies of men, children and women, abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said, ‘Women are placed first from the direction of al-Qiblah (al-Ka‘bah). Then the children, and then men are placed, and the Imam stands next to the dead bodied of men.’”
5ـ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنِ ابْنِ بُكَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) فِي جَنَائِزِ الرِّجَالِ وَالصِّبْيَانِ وَالنِّسَاءِ قَالَ
يَضَعُ النِّسَاءَ مِمَّا يَلِي الْقِبْلَةَ وَالصِّبْيَانَ دُونَهُمْ وَالرِّجَالَ دُونَ ذَلِكَ وَيَقُومُ الإِمَامُ مِمَّا يَلِي الرِّجَالَ.
