Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 954c

This hadith is another chain for the report narrated by Shaibani about the Prophet’s prayer over a grave. The text says the narration came through other transmitters from Sha'bi, from Ibn 'Abbas, from the Prophet (صلى الله عليه وسلم), concerning his prayer over the grave. It also notes that their wording does not include the phrase that he recited four takbirs. This is useful for understanding how hadith wording may differ across chains. For searches like prayer over grave hadith, Salat al-Janazah over grave, and funeral prayer after burial, this narration keeps the focus on the prayer over the grave while also showing care in recording wording.

What we learn from this hadith

  • This narration reports the Prophet’s prayer over a grave through another chain.
  • The text notes that the phrase about four takbirs is not in this wording.
  • The hadith shows careful preservation of what each narration includes.
