\nNarrated Ibn `Abbas:\n \n\nWhen `Abdullah bin 'Ubai died, his son `Abdullah bin `Abdullah came to Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and asked \nhim to give him his shirt in order to shroud his father in it. He gave it to him and then `Abdullah asked \nthe Prophet (ﷺ) to offer the funeral prayer for him (his father). Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) got up to offer the funeral \nprayer for him, but `Umar got up too and got hold of the garment of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and said, "O \nAllah's Messenger (ﷺ) Will you offer the funeral prayer for him though your Lord has forbidden you to offer \nthe prayer for him" Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) said, "But Allah has given me the choice by saying: \n'(Whether you) ask forgiveness for them, or do not ask forgiveness for them; even if you ask \nforgiveness for them seventy times..' (9.80) so I will ask more than seventy times." `Umar said, "But \nhe (`Abdullah bin 'Ubai) is a hypocrite!" However, Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) did offer the funeral prayer for him \nwhereupon Allah revealed: \n'And never (O Muhammad) pray for anyone of them that dies, nor stand at his grave.' (9.84)\n
