Narrated Ibn Abbas: I heard Umar Bin AlKhattab saying: When Abdullah Bin Ubay died; the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was called to perform the funeral prayer over him. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ came to him; and when he stood over him; about to perform the prayer; he turned until he was standing at his chest. I said: O Messenger of Allah! You pray for Allah enemy Abdullah Bin Ubay; who on this day said this and that - mentioning different days. He said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ was smiling until I had said too much to him and he said: Leave me O Umar! Indeed I have been given the choice; so I chose. I was told: Whether you ask forgiveness for them; or do not ask for forgiveness for them. Even though you ask for their forgiveness seventy times; Allah will not forgive them 9:80. If I knew that were I to ask more than seventy times that he would be forgiven; then I would do so. He said: Then he performed the Prayer for him and walked with him his funeral procession and he stood at his grave until it was finished. I was amazed at myself and my daring to talk like that to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ ; while Allah and His Messenger ﷺ know better. But by Allah! It was not long until these two Ayat were revealed: And never pray for any of them who dies nor stand at his grave... 9:84 until the end of the Ayah. He said: So afterwards the Messenger of Allah ﷺ did not perform the Prayer for a hypocrite; nor would he stand at his grave until Allah took him.
