Tirmidhi Book 10, Hadith 1031
حَدَّثَنَا بِشْرُ بْنُ آدَمَ ابْنُ بِنْتِ أَزْهَرَ السَّمَّانِ الْبَصْرِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيل بْنُ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، عَنْ زِيَادِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ حَيَّةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ الْمُغِيرَةِ بْنِ شُعْبَةَ، أَنّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، قَالَ: الرَّاكِبُ خَلْفَ الْجَنَازَةِ وَالْمَاشِي حَيْثُ شَاءَ مِنْهَا، وَالطِّفْلُ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ . قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى: هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ، رَوَاهُ إِسْرَائِيلُ، وَغَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَيْهِ عِنْدَ بَعْضِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَغَيْرِهِمْ، قَالُوا: يُصَلَّى عَلَى الطِّفْلِ، وَإِنْ لَمْ يَسْتَهِلَّ بَعْدَ أَنْ يُعْلَمَ أَنَّهُ خُلِقَ، وَهُوَ قَوْلُ: أَحْمَدَ، وَإِسْحَاق.
Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah narrated that: The Prophet said: The rider is to be behind the funeral (procession), and the walker where he wishes, and the child should be prayed over.
