Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 21, Hadith 100

Narrated Al-Bahiyy: When Ibrahim, the son of the Prophet (ﷺ) died, he prayed over him at the place where he used to sit. Abu Dawud said: I recited to Sa’id b. Ya’qub al-Taliqani saying: Ibn al-Mubarak transmitted to you from Ya’qub b. al-Qa’qa’ on the authority of ‘Ata that the Prophet (ﷺ) prayed over his son Ibrahim when he was seventeen days old.

حَدَّثَنَا هَنَّادُ بْنُ السَّرِيِّ، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ، عَنْ وَائِلِ بْنِ دَاوُدَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الْبَهِيَّ، قَالَ لَمَّا مَاتَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ ابْنُ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَلَّى عَلَيْهِ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي الْمَقَاعِدِ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ قَرَأْتُ عَلَى سَعِيدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ الطَّالْقَانِيِّ قِيلَ لَهُ حَدَّثَكُمُ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ عَنْ يَعْقُوبَ بْنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ عَنْ عَطَاءٍ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم صَلَّى عَلَى ابْنِهِ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ سَبْعِينَ لَيْلَةً ‏.‏

Sunan Abi Dawud: Book 21, Hadith 100

 
This hadith is from the Sunan Abi Dawud collection of hadiths. Sunan Abi Dawud constitutes a seminal work within the Kutub al-Sittah (the Six Books), the canonical compendiums of hadith in Sunni Islam. Authored by Abu Dawud Sulayman ibn al-Ash’ath al-Sijistani (817–889 CE), the collection is systematically organized into kitabs (books) that primarily address matters of fiqh (Islamic jurisprudence). Containing precisely 4,800 hadiths, it is critically acclaimed not only for its content but for the compiler’s scholarly annotations, which frequently assess the authenticity (sihha) and reliability of the included isnads (chains of transmission). Its status is thus one of pronounced authority, though it is not exclusively limited to sahih (authentic) grade hadiths.
