[Machine] I buried my son Sinan and Abu Talhah Al-Khawlani was sitting on the edge of the grave. He said, "Al-Dhahak ibn Abd al-Rahman told me that Abu Musa said, 'The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, When Allah takes the soul of His servant, He asks His angels, What did my servant say?' They say, 'He praised You and sought forgiveness from You.' Allah says, 'Build for him a house in Jannah and name it the House of Praise.'"  

البيهقي:٧١٤٦وَأَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ فُورَكٍ أنبأ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ ثنا يُونُسُ بْنُ حَبِيبٍ ثنا أَبُو دَاوُدَ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ أَبِي سِنَانٍ قَالَ

دَفَنْتُ ابْنِي سِنَانًا وَأَبُو طَلْحَةَ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ جَالِسٌ عَلَى شَفِيرِ الْقَبْرِ فَقَالَ حَدَّثَنِي الضَّحَّاكُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ إِذَا قَبَضَ اللهُ ابْنَ الْعَبْدِ قَالَ لِمَلَائِكَتِهِ مَا قَالَ عَبْدِي؟ قَالُوا حَمِدَكَ وَاسْتَرْجَعَ قَالَ ابْنُوا لَهُ بَيْتًا فِي الْجَنَّةِ وَسَمُّوهُ بَيْتَ الْحَمْدِ

"I buried my son Sinan and Abu Talhah Al-Khawlani was sitting on the rim of the grave. When I wanted to leave he took me by my hand and said: 'Shall I not inform you of some good new O Abu Sinan!' I said: 'Of course.' He said: 'Ad-Dahhak bin Abdur-Rahman bin Arzab narrated to me, from Abu Musa Al-Ash'ari: "The Messenger of Allah said: 'When a child of the slave (of Allah) died, Allah says to the angels: "Have you taken the fruits of his work." They reply: "Yes." So He says: "What did My slave say?" They reply: "He praised you and mentioned that to You is the return." So Allah says: "Build a house in Paradise for My slave, and name it 'the house of praise.'"
