It was narrated from Abu Hurayra (رضي الله عنه) — via 'Abd al-Razzaq, from Ma'mar, from al-Zuhri, from Ibn al-Musayyab and Abu Salama ibn 'Abd al-Rahman — that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ announced the death of al-Najashi [the Negus of Abyssinia] to his companions while he was in Madina. They lined up behind him, and he prayed the funeral prayer over him and said four takbirs.
