John Shaqi

سُئِلَ كَيْفَ أَصْنَعُ إِذَا خَرَجْتُ مَعَ الْجَنَازَةِ أَمْشِي أَمَامَهَا أَوْ خَلْفَهَا أَوْ عَنْ يَمِينِهَا أَوْ عَنْ شِمَالِهَا فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ مُخَالِفاً فَلَا تَمْشِ أَمَامَهُ فَإِنَّ مَلَائِكَةَ الْعَذَابِ يَسْتَقْبِلُونَهُ بِأَلْوَانِ الْعَذَابِ .


Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Al Nowfaly, from Al Sakuny, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup>, said, ‘He<sup>asws</sup> was asked, ‘How shall I act when I go out along with the coffin, walk in front of it, or behind it, or from its right, or from its left?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘If he (the deceased) was an adversary (opponent of Ahl Al-Bayt<sup>asws</sup>), so do not walk in front of it, for the Angels of the Punishment would be welcoming him with a variety of the Punishments’.
