We use a high-statistic quantum Monte Carlo and Maximum Entropy regularization method to compute the dynamical energy correlation function (DECF) of the one-dimensional (1D) $S=1/2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model at finite temperatures. We also present a finite temperature analytical ansatz for the DECF which is in very good agreement with the numerical data in all the considered temperature range. From these results, and from a finite temperature generalisation of the mechanism proposed by Lorenzana and Sawatsky [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 74}, 1867 (1995)], we compute the line shape for the optical absorption spectra of multimagnon excitations assisted by phonons for quasi 1D compounds. The line shape has two contributions analogous to the Stokes and anti-Stokes process of Raman scattering. Our low temperature data is in good agreement with optical absorption experiments of CuO$_3$ chains in Sr$_2$CuO$_3$. Our finite temperature results provide a non trivial prediction on the dynamics of the Heisenberg model at finite temperatures that is easy to verify experimentally.
