Allah gave the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم the choice of remaining in this worldly life or meeting Allah and Jannah (paradise), so he chose Jannah, he صلى الله عليه وسلم then became seriously ill and requested from his wives that he be treated and nursed at A’isha’s houseرضي الله عنه ,they permitted this. When he was no longer able to lead the prayer, he commanded Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه to lead the people a sign that he would be successor after the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم .On Monday 12th Rabi’ul-Awwal year eleven after hijrah, he صلى الله عليه وسلم went out to the people while they were praying Fajr, he lifted the curtain and opened the door so they could see him, he signaled for them to complete the prayer whilst smiling at them. Then as the morning intensified the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم passed away, his death was the biggest affliction upon the believers and they were extremely saddened by his صلى الله عليه وسلم death. The people then gathered and pledged allegiance to Abu Bakr رضي الله عنه ,no one differed with this decision as they knew his virtue over the people and being from among the earliest to embrace Islam. The Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم was then washed and shrouded in three white garments to be buried in the place he passed away, in the room of the mother of the believers A’isha رضي الله عنه.That this is what Allah legislated for his prophets, they are to be buried in the same place they passed away. Both mankind and Jinn send the salutations and blessings of our Lord upon him
صلى الله عليه وسلم .We bear witness that he صلى الله عليه وسلم fulfilled his obligation, advised the nation and fought in the cause of Allah in the best manner, so may Allah reward him on behalf of his nation the reward a prophet would receive on behalf of their nation and all praise is due to Allah lord of all that exists.
