I've red in one of the sources that Aisha (peace of Allah be upon her) asked to bury her after death at night time. What was the reason, if it's true?
Praise be to Allah.This was mentioned by Muhammad ibn Umar al-Waaqidi,
and was also narrated by al-Haakim in al-Mustadrak (4/6-7) and
by Ibn Sad in al-Tabaqaat (8/76-77), and in Siyar Alaam
al-Nubalaa (2/192) and in other sources.
It seems and Allaah knows best that she
did not want her burial to be delayed, as it was reported that she died
during the night on the 17th of Ramadaan, after Witr. Or
it may have been because that was more concealing for her, or perhaps
during her lifetime, especially towards the end of it, there appeared
an idea that it was makrooh to bury people at night, and she wanted
to make the correct Islamic ruling known. Or it may have been for some
other reason. In general it is permissible to bury a person at night
if there is a reason to do so. And Allaah knows best.
