Hadith 469
۞
Hadith.470 - Imam Muhammad ibn Ali Al-Baqir (as) said: "The Commander of the Faithful Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib (as) used to recite takbirs five at a time over the deceased. When people would arrive late and say, 'O’ Commander of the Faithful, we did not catch the prayer over Sahl ibn Hunayf,' he would place the bier down and recite five takbirs over him again, repeating this process until he reached the grave, doing so five times”.
470 - وَقَالَ أَبُو جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «كَانَ أَمِيرُ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ يُكَبِّرُ خَمْساً خَمْساً كَانَ إِذَا أَدْرَكَهُ اَلنَّاسُ قَالُوا يَا أَمِيرَ اَلْمُؤْمِنِينَ لَمْ نُدْرِكِ اَلصَّلاَةَ عَلَى سَهْلِ بْنِ حُنَيْفٍ فَيَضَعُهُ فَيُكَبِّرُ عَلَيْهِ خَمْساً حَتَّى اِنْتَهَى إِلَى قَبْرِهِ خَمْسَ مَرَّاتٍ.
