Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مَالِكٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَعَى النَّجَاشِيَّ فِي الْيَوْمِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ، خَرَجَ إِلَى الْمُصَلَّى، فَصَفَّ بِهِمْ وَكَبَّرَ أَرْبَعًا‏.‏

Translation

Isma'il narrated to us; Malik narrated to me, from Ibn Shihab, from Sa'id ibn al-Musayyab, from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him): On the day the Negus died, the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) announced his death, went out to the prayer ground, formed the people into rows, and said four takbirs.
