حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنَا شُعْبَةُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مُرَّةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ سَمِعْتُ عَمْرَو بْنَ مَيْمُونٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رُبَيِّعَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ آخَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ فَقُتِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَمَاتَ الْآخَرُ بَعْدَهُ بِجُمُعَةٍ أَوْ نَحْوِهَا فَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ مَا قُلْتُمْ فَقُلْنَا:‏‏‏‏ دَعَوْنَا لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَقُلْنَا:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَأَلْحِقْهُ بِصَاحِبِهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَيْنَ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدَ صَلَاتِهِ وَصَوْمُهُ بَعْدَ صَوْمِهِ ؟ شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ فِي صَوْمِهِ وَعَمَلُهُ بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ إِنَّ بَيْنَهُمَا كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ.

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم made a brotherhood between two men, one of whom was killed (in Allah's path), and a week or thereabouts later the other died, and we prayed at his funeral). The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم asked: What did you say? We replied: We prayed for him and said: O Allah, forgive him, and join him to his companion. The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم said: What about his prayers since the time the other died, and his fasting since the time the other died--the narrator Shubah doubted the words, his fasting--and his deeds since the time the other died. The distance between them is just like the distance between heaven and earth.
