English Translation

‘Abd al-Ṣamad narrated to us, my father narrated to us, Ḥusayn narrated to us, Ibn Buraydah narrated to us, who said he heard Samurah ibn Jundub say: What prevents me from narrating many of the things I used to hear from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ is that there are here those who have heard more than I have. I was a young boy at that time, yet I used to memorize what I heard from him. I prayed behind the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and he prayed the funeral prayer over Umm Ka‘b, who had died in her postpartum period (nifās). the Messenger of Allah ﷺ stood for the prayer over her at her middle.
