Kaffan And Being Laid To Rest In The Rauza-E-Anwar

The Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم had already said that his Kaffan and lowering him in the grave should be done by his Ahle Bait and other family members. It is for this reason that this was done as per the command of Rasoolullah صلي الله عليه وسلم. Hazrat Fadhal bin Abbas, Hazrat Quthm bin Abbas, Hazrat Ali, Hazrat Abbas and Hazrat Usama bin Zaid (ridwaanullahi ta aala alaihim ajmaeen) gave ghusl to the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم. Hazrat Ali رضي الله عنه in true love and spiritual ecstasy took the ghusl water that remained on the navel and on the eyelids of Rasool صلي الله عليه وسلم with his tongue. After the ghusl, the Kaffan was made up of three pieces of cotton material

Namaaz-E-Janazah

When the Janazah of the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم was ready, then people came in groups and read the Janazah Salaah. Because the Janazah was inside the Hujrah Mubaarak, only few people at a time entered and read the Janazah Salaah and left, then others followed, but there was no Imam. [Madarijun Nabuiwat]

Explaining the Janazah Salaah of Rasoolullah صلي الله عليه وسلم in detail,

Ahmed Raza Khan رضي الله عنه states as follows in the fourth volume of his world renowned encyclopaedia Fatawa-e-Razviyah

“The Ulama have differences on the issue of the Janazah Salaah of the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم. One Jama’at says that the Janazah Namaaz did not really occur. Small groups came in and sent Durood and Salaams and then left, followed by others.

There are also many Ulama who accept this Namaaz Maroof. Imam Qaazi Iyaaz رضي الله عنه rectified this. Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique رضي الله عنه was engrossed in giving hope to the Muslims and taking care of the needs of the Ummah. At this time, the allegiance had not been taken on his hands. People came in huge and small groups and continued to pray the Janazah Salaah of Rasoolullah صلي الله عليه وسلم.When the Allegiance was taken on the hands of Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique رضي الله عنه and his Guardianship was confirmed, He prayed the Janazah Salaah, and after him non other prayed, as mentioned by Imam Shamsul Ulama Sarkhasi رضي الله عنه. It is in Bazaaz, Haakim, Ibn Saad, Ibn Mani, Baihiqi, Tibraani and Mujim Ausat on the authority of Hazrat Abdullah ibn Masood رضي الله عنه that the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم said,

‘After giving me ghusl and kaffan, leave me on the bier and go outside. Jibraeel Alaihis Salaam will first read Namaaz over me, followed by Mikaeel Alaihis Salaam, followed by Israfeel Alaihis Salaam . The Angel of death will then pray over me with his entire army. You should them come to me in groups and read Durood and Salaam.’ ” [Fatawa Razvia vol.4. pg 54 – New Edition of Fatawa Razvia Vol.9 pg.286]

HIS BLESSED RAUZA-E-ANWAR:

Hazrat Abu Talha رضي الله عنه prepared the blessed Grave of the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم. Hazrat Ali, Hazrat Fadhl bin Abbas and Hazrat Quthm bin Abbas (ridwaanullahi ta aala alaihim ajmaeen) lowered the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم into his Rauza-e-Anwar. It is evident from the narration of Abu Dawood, that Hazrat Usama رضي الله عنه and Hazrat Abdur Rahmaan bin Auf رضي الله عنه also went into the Blessed Grave.

Hazrat Quthm رضي الله عنه was the last to leave the Qabr-e-Anwar. He says, “I looked at the blessed face of the Prophet صلي الله عليه وسلم for the last time and then saw that his blessed lips were moving. I place my ears close and heard him say, ‘Rab’bi Habli Ummati’ (O Allah, Give my Ummah to me).” [Madarijun Nabuiwat Vol.2 Pg. 442 – Abu Dawood vol.2 pg.458]
