Translation

Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Umar Bin Azina, from Zurara, from Abu Ja’far^asws having said: ‘Ali Bin Ibrahim, from his father, from Ibn Abu Umeyr, from Umar Bin Azina, from Zurara, from Abu Ja’far^asws having said: ‘Rasool-Allah^saww used to do a special thing with the one who died from the Clan of Hashim than with anyone from the Muslims. When he^saww prayed <span class="iTxt">Salaat</span> upon the Hashimy and sprinkle his grave with the water, would place his^saww hand upon the grave until his^saww fingers would be seen to be in the clay. Thus, if the stranger or a traveler from the people of Medina would come over, he would see upon the new grave the impact of the palm of Rasool-Allah^azwj, and he would be saying, ‘The one from the family of Muhammad^saww has died’.
