[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "When you attend a funeral, say something good, for the angels will affirm what you say." Abu Salamah had died, so I said, "How should I address you, O Messenger of Allah?" He said, "Say, 'Oh Allah, forgive him and grant us a good outcome after him.'" She said, "Allah granted me a better outcome than him, O Messenger of Allah." Muhammad ibn Ali ibn Kushaysh al-Muqri, who lived in Kufa, reported to us that Abu Ishaq Ibrahim ibn Abdullah al-Azdi ibn Abi Al-Azaim reported to us that Ahmad ibn Hazim reported to us that Ubaydullah narrated to us something similar to this.  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا حَضَرْتُمُ الْمَيِّتَ فَقُولُوا خَيْرًا؛ فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ يُؤَمِّنُونَ عَلَى مَا تَقُولُونَ قَالَتْ فَلَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ قُلْتُ كَيْفَ أَقُولُ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ؟ قَالَ قُولِي اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَأَعْقِبْنَا مِنْهُ عُقْبَى صَالِحَةً قَالَتْ فَأَعْقَبَنِي اللهُ خَيْرًا مِنْهُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ 6602 وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو الْحُسَيْنِ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَلِيِّ بْنِ خُشَيْشٍ الْمُقْرِئُ بِالْكُوفَةِ أنبأ أَبُو إِسْحَاقَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ الْأَزْدِيُّ ابْنُ أَبِي الْعَزَائِمِ أنبأ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ حَازِمٍ أنبأ عُبَيْدُ اللهِ أنبأ الْأَعْمَشُ مِثْلَهُ
