Sayyiduna Jabir bin Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him) said that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Today, a righteous man from Abyssinia (the Negus, king of Abyssinia) has passed away. Come, let us offer his funeral prayer." Sayyiduna Jabir (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that then we formed rows and the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) led his funeral prayer while we stood in rows.
