وَعَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ قَالَ: صَلَّيْتُ وَرَاءَ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ عَلَى صَبِيٍّ لَمْ يَعْمَلْ خَطِيئَةً قَطُّ فَسَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ: اللَّهُمَّ أَعِذْهُ مِنْ عَذَابِ الْقَبْر. رَوَاهُ مَالك
Translation
Said ibn al-Musayyib reported: I prayed behind Abu Hurayra over a boy who had never committed a sin, and I heard him say, ‘O Allah, protect him from the punishment of the grave.’ Malik transmitted it.
