Musnad Fudalah ibn Ubayd al-Ansari (RA)

مسند فضالة بن عبيد الأنصاري

Hadith 1118:1

Muhammad ibn Ubayd narrated to us, Muhammad ibn Ishaq narrated to us, from Thumamah, who said: We went out with Fudalah ibn Ubayd to the land of the Byzantines, and he was a governor for Mu'awiyah at the mountain pass. A cousin of ours was struck [and died], so Fudalah prayed over him and stood by his grave until he had concealed him. When we had leveled his grave over him, he said: "Level it," for the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) used to "command us to level the graves."

حدثنا محمد بن عبيد، حدثنا محمد بن إسحاق ، عن ثمامة، قال: خرجنا مع فضالة بن عبيد إلى أرض الروم، وكان عاملا لمعاوية على الدرب، فأصيب ابن عم لنا فصلى عليه فضالة، وقام على حفرته حتى واراه، فلما سوينا عليه حفرته قال: أخفوا عنه فإن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم كان " يأمرنا بتسوية القبور " . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
