Shama-il Tirmidhi Chapter 53, Hadith Number 11 (378).
Abi Salamah bin ‘Abdurrahmaan bin ‘Awf Radiyallahu ‘Anhu said: “Rasulullah Sallallahu’Alayhi Wasallam passed away on a Monday, and was buried on a Tuesday”.
Commentary
Sayyidina Rasulullah Sallallahu ‘Alayhi Wasallam was buried during the night of Tuesday and Wednesday, which could be called Tuesday or Wednesday too. ‘Hence this narration does not contradict the previous narration. Some of the ‘ulama have said that after overcoming the question of the khilaafah, the tajheez and takfeen began on Tuesday and ended on the night of Wednesday (Tuesday night).
