كَانَ الْبَرَاءُ بْنُ مَعْرُورٍ التَّمِيمِيُّ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ بِالْمَدِينَةِ وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) بِمَكَّةَ وَ إِنَّهُ حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ وَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) وَ الْمُسْلِمُونَ يُصَلُّونَ إِلَى بَيْتِ الْمَقْدِسِ فَأَوْصَى الْبَرَاءُ إِذَا دُفِنَ أَنْ يَجْعَلَ وَجْهَهُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ( صلى الله عليه وآله ) إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ فَجَرَتْ بِهِ السُّنَّةُ وَ أَنَّهُ أَوْصَى بِثُلُثِ مَالِهِ فَنَزَلَ بِهِ الْكِتَابُ وَ جَرَتْ بِهِ السُّنَّةُ .
Translation
Al Husayn Bin Muhammad, from Abdullah Bin Aamir, from Ali Bin Mahziyar, from Hammad Bin Isa, from Muawiya Bin Ammar, (It has been narrated) from Abu Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> having said: ‘Al-Bara’a Bin Marour Al-Tamimy Al-Ansary was in Al-Medina, and Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> was in Makkah, and the death presented itself to him, and Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> and the Muslims were praying <span class="iTxt">Salaat</span> (facing) towards Bayt Al-Maqdis. So Bara’a bequeathed that when he is buried, his face be made towards Rasool-Allah<sup>saww</sup> , towards the Qiblah. So the Sunnah flowed with it, and he bequeathed with a third of his wealth, and the Book Revealed with it and the Sunnah flowed with it’.
