[Al-Ḥasan ibn al-Bannā:] Abū Ḥasan al-Tamīmī anamnukuu baba yake akisema kwamba babu yake alihudhuria mazishi ya Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal, naye akasimulia, "Nilikaa wiki nzima nikitumaini kufika kaburini, lakini kulikuwa na watu wengi mno. Ilinichukua wiki nzima kupita katikati yao." 85.1

[Al-Ḥasan ibn al-Bannā:] Abū Ḥasan al-Tamīmī cites his father as saying that his grandfather attended the funeral of Aḥmad ibn Ḥanbal and reported, “I stayed for an entire week hoping to reach the grave but there were too many people there. It took a week for me to get through.” 85.1
