[Machine] Narrated by Prophet Muhammad ﷺ : Whoever prays on a deceased person, he will be rewarded with one Qirat. And if he follows the funeral procession until the burial is completed, he will be rewarded with two Qirats, one of which is smaller than the other, equivalent to the size of Mount Uhud. When Ibn Umar heard this, he was amazed and sent a message to Aisha (the Prophet's wife) and she confirmed that Abu Huraira (another companion) spoke the truth. Ibn Umar commented, "We have missed out on many great rewards."  

أحمد:١٠٠٧٩ – حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو سَلَمَةَ عَنِ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ كُتِبَ لَهُ قِيرَاطٌ فَإِنْ تَبِعَهَا حَتَّى يُقْضَى دَفْنُهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ أَصْغَرُهُمَا أَوْ أَحَدُهُمَا مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ فَبَلَغَ ذَلِكَ ابْنَ عُمَرَ فَتَعَاظَمَهُ فَأَرْسَلَ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ فَقَالَتْ صَدَقَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ فَقَالَ ابْنُ عُمَرَ لَقَدْ فَرَّطْنَا فِي قَرَارِيطَ كَثِيرَةٍ

Collected by Tirmidhī, Aḥmad
tirmidhi:1040 – Abū Kurayb > ʿAbdah b. Sulaymān > Muḥammad b. ʿAmr > Abū Salamah > Abū Hurayrah

The Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever performs the funeral prayer then he will get a reward equal to a Qirat. Whoever follows it until it is buried then he will get a reward equal to two Qirat, one of them, or the least of them, is similar to Uhud (mountain)." This was mentioned to Ibn Umar, so he sent a message to Aishah to ask her about that, and she said: "Abu Hurairah has told the truth." So Ibn Umar said: "We have missed many Qirat."
