حَدَّثَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، قَالَ الْحُسَيْنُ بْنُ ذَكْوَانَ أَخْبَرَنِي عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ بُرَيْدَةَ الأَسْلَمِيِّ، عَنْ سَمُرَةَ بْنِ جُنْدُبٍ الْفَزَارِيِّ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ صَلَّى عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ مَاتَتْ فِي نِفَاسِهَا فَقَامَ وَسَطَهَا ‏.‏

It wasnarrated that Abu Ghalib said

“I saw Anas bin Malik offeringthefuneral prayer for a man, and he stood level with his head. Thenanother funeral was brought, that of a woman, and they said: ‘O AbuHamzah! Offer the funeral prayer for her.’ So he stood level withthemiddle of the bed (the body was upon). ‘Ala’ bin Ziyad saidto him: ‘OAbu Hamzah! Is this how you saw the Messenger of Allah(ﷺ) standingin relation to the body of a man and a woman as youhave stood?’ Hesaid: ‘Yes.’ Then he turned to us and said:‘Remember this.’”
