Hadith 34:185

Abu Bakr al-Hanafi narrated to us, from Kathir ibn Zayd al-Madani, from al-Muttalib ibn Abdullah ibn Hantab, who said: When Uthman ibn Maz'un died, the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) buried him in al-Baqi'. He was the first to be buried in it. Then he said to a man who was with him: "Go to that rock and bring it to me, so that I may place it at his grave, that I may recognize him by it, and whoever dies from among our family, we shall bury him beside him."

حدثنا أبو بكر الحنفي عن كثير بن زيد المدني عن المطلب بن عبد الله بن حنطب قال لما مات عثمان بن مظعون دفنه رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم بالبقيع أول من دفن فيه ثم قال لرجل عنده إذهب إلى تلك الصخرة فأتني بها حتى أضعها عند قبره حتى أعرفه بها فمن مات من أهلنا دفناه عنده
