When my father was martyred

Bukhari :: Book 2 :: Volume 23 :: Hadith 33
Narrated Jabir bin 'Abdullah :

When my father was martyred, I lifted the sheet from his face and wept and
the people forbade me to do so but the Prophet did not forbid me. Then my
aunt Fatima began weeping and the Prophet said, "It is all the same
whether you weep or not. The angels were shading him continuously with
their wings till you shifted him (from the field). 


Bukhari :: Book 2 :: Volume 23 :: Hadith 338


Narrated Anas bin Malik:

The Prophet said, "Zaid took over the flag and was martyred. Then it was
taken by Jafar who was martyred as well. Then 'Abdullah bin Rawaha took the
flag but he too was martyred and at that time the eyes of Allah's Apostle
were full of tears. Then Khalid bin Al-Walid took the flag without being
nominated as a chief (before hand) and was blessed with victory."

Prohibition of Taking Graves as Places of Worship‏

1] Jundub Ibn 'Abdullaah al-Bajalee said that he heard the Prophet  
(sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) say - five days before he died: "Verily  
those before you took the graves of their Prophets and righteous people as  
places of worship, so do not take the graves as places of worship. Indeed I  
forbid you from this!"
 
 
[2] From Aboo Hurayrah that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu 'alayhi wa  
sallam) said: "O Allaah, do not turn my grave into an idol. May the curse  
of Allaah be upon those who take the graves of their Prophets as places of  
worship."
 
 
[3] 'Abdullaah Ibn Sharjeel Hasanah said: "I saw 'Uthmaan Ibn 'Affaan order  
the leveling of the graves. So it was said to him: 'This is the grave of  
Umm 'Amr the daughter of 'Uthmaan!' However, he commanded that it too  
should be leveled."
 
 
[4] From Abul-Hayyaaj al-Asadee who said: "'Alee Ibn Abee Taalib said to  
me: 'Shall I not send you for what the Messenger of Allaah  
(sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam) sent me? That you deface all statues and  
pictures and that you level all elevated graves.'"
 
 
[5] Aboo Burdah said: "Aboo Moosaa al-Ash'aree advised us before he died,  
saying: 'You should hasten with my janaazah…and do not put in my lahad (a  
cleavage in the side of the grave where the body is placed) anything that  
will come between me and the earth, nor build anything over my grave. So  
bear witness that I am free of those women who shave their heads, tear  
their clothes or beat their cheeks.' They said: 'Did you hear anything  
about this?' He said: 'Yes, from the Messenger of Allaah  
(sallallaahu 'alayhi wa sallam)!'"

He say: [It was] out of fear of people. Then He says: Rather it is I whom you should more properly fear. It was related by Ibn Majah with a sound chain of authorities.

On the authority of Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him), who said that the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: Allah (mighty and sublime be He) will say on the Day of Resurrection:

O son of Adam, I fell ill and you visited Me not. He will say: O Lord, and how should I visit You when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: Did you not know that My servant So-and-so had fallen ill and you visited him not? Did you not know that had you visited him you would have found Me with him?

O son of Adam, I asked you for food and you fed Me not. He will say: O Lord, and how should I feed You when You are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: Did you not know that My servant So-and-so asked you for food and you fed him not? Did you not know that had you fed him you would surely have found that (the reward for doing so) with Me? O son of Adam, I asked you to give Me to drink and you gave Me not to drink. He will say: O Lord, how should I give You to drink whin You are the Lord of the worlds? He will say: My servant So-and-so asked you to give him to drink and you gave him not to drink. Had you given him to drink you would have surely found that with Me. It was related by Muslim.
