Sunan an-Nasa'i 1982
أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ مُرَّةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي لَيْلَى، أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ ، صَلَّى عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ فَكَبَّرَ عَلَيْهَا خَمْسًا وَقَالَ كَبَّرَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم .
‘Amr ibn ‘Ali narrated to us, saying: Yahya narrated to us, saying: Shu‘bah narrated to us, saying: ‘Amr ibn Murrah told me, from Ibn Abi Layla, that Zayd ibn Arqam prayed over a funeral bier, pronounced five takbirs over it, and said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) pronounced five takbirs over it.
Translation notes
أَنَّ زَيْدَ بْنَ أَرْقَمَ ،
The Arabic chain names Zayd ibn Arqam as the speaker of the report, with Ibn Abi Layla as the transmitter before him.
Can the witness attribution be corrected to identify Zayd ibn Arqam as the narrator of the report?
