Chapter on Instructing the Dying (Talqin al-Muhtadarin)

سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْمَاعِيلَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عُذَافِرٍ عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ بْنِ عَمَّارٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ:« لَيْسَ اَلتَّعْزِيَةُ إِلاَّ عِنْدَ اَلْقَبْرِ ثُمَّ يَنْصَرِفُونَ لاَ يَحْدُثُ فِي اَلْمَيِّتِ حَدَثٌ فَيَسْمَعُونَ اَلصَّوْتَ».
Sahl ibn Ziyad, from Muhammad ibn Isma'il, from Muhammad ibn 'Udhaafir, from Ishaq ibn 'Ammar, from Abu 'Abdillah عليه السلام, said: Imam عليه السلام said: "Condolences (ta‘ziyah) are only at the grave, then they should disperse. No new event occurs concerning the deceased such that they would hear a sound."
