Hazrat Abu Umamah bin Sahl narrates from his father that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, used to visit the sick among the poor people of Madinah and would participate in their funerals. A woman from among the people of Awali passed away. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "When death comes to her, inform me." When people came to inform the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, they found him resting, and a part of the night had already passed. They disliked waking him from his sleep, and they felt fear due to the darkness of the night and the insects and creatures of the earth. When morning came, the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, inquired about that woman. The people said, "O Messenger of Allah! We came to inform you, but we found you asleep, so we did not think it appropriate to wake you, and the darkness of the night and the creatures of the earth frightened us. Therefore, we buried her." Upon hearing this, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, went with us, came to the grave of that woman, offered prayer over her, and recited four takbirs.
