Jami' at-Tirmidhi — Hadith #27186

Abu Kurayb told us, Abdullah bin Al-Mubarak and Yunus bin Bukayr told us, on the authority of Muhammad bin Ishaq, on the authority of Yazid bin Abi Habib, on the authority of Marthad bin Abdullah Al-Yazani said: If Malik bin Hubayra prayed at a funeral and people disagreed over it, he would reward them with three Parts, then the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, said, “Whoever is prayed over in three rows, it is obligatory.” He said, and in the chapter on the authority of Aisha and Umm Habibah, Abu Hurairah, and Maimuna, the wife of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace. Abu Issa said the hadith of Malik ibn Hubayra is a hasan hadith like this. It was narrated by more than one person on the authority of Muhammad bin Ishaq. Ibrahim bin Saad narrated this hadith on the authority of Muhammad bin Ishaq and included a narration. And Malik bin Hubayra was a man. The narration of these people is more correct in our opinion.
