[Machine] We were sitting with the Prophet ﷺ when a funeral procession passed by. The Prophet ﷺ said, "The believer finds rest and is relieved from the afflictions, trials, and calamities of this world when they die. As for the disbeliever, the people, the land, the trees, and the animals find rest and relief from them."  

كُنَّا جُلُوسًا عِنْدَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ إِذْ طَلَعَتْ جَنَازَةٌ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «مُسْتَرِيحٌ وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ» قُلْنَا مَا يَسْتَرِيحُ وَيُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ ﷺ «الْمُؤْمِنُ يَمُوتُ وَيَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ أَوْصَابِ الدُّنْيَا وَبَلَائِهَا وَمُصِيبَاتِهَا وَالْكَافِرُ يَمُوتُ فَيَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْهُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلَادُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ»  

He who loves to meet Allah, Allah also loves to meet him, and he who dislikes to meet Allah, Allah also abhors to meet him. (Using translation from Muslim 2683a)   

وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَمَنْ لَمْ يُحِبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ لَمْ يُحِبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him; and whoever hates to meet Allah, Allah hates to meet him." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6508)  

عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ كَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ» فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ إِنَّا نَكْرَهُ الْمَوْتَ فَذَاكَ كَرَاهِيَتُنَا لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ؟ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «لَا وَلَكِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا حُضِرَ فَبُشِّرَ بِمَا أَمَامَهُ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَأَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَإِنَّ الْكَافِرَ إِذَا حُضِرَ فَبُشِّرَ بِمَا أَمَامَهُ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَكَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ»  

He who loves to meet Allah, Allah loves to meet him, and he who dislikes to meet Allah, Allah abhors to meet him. I ('A'isha) said: Allah's Apostle, so far as the feeling of aversion against death is concerned, we all have this feeling. Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: It is not that (which you construe), but (this) that when a believer (at the time of death) is given the glad tidings of the mercy of Allah, His Pleasure, and of Paradise, he loves to meet Allah, and Allah also loves to meet him, and when an unbeliever is given the news of the torment at the Hand of Allah, and Hardship to be imposed by Him, he dislikes to meet Allah and Allah also abhors to meet him. (Using translation from Muslim 2684a)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَنْ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ أَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَمَنْ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ كَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ» قَالَتْ فَقُلْتُ يَا نَبِيَّ اللَّهِ كَرَاهِيَةُ الْمَوْتِ؟ فَكُلُّنَا نَكْرَهُ الْمَوْتَ قَالَ «لَيْسَ كَذَلِكَ وَلَكِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا بُشِّرَ بِرَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانِهِ وَجَنَّتِهِ أَحَبَّ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَأَحَبَّ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ وَإِنَّ الْكَافِرَ إِذَا بُشِّرَ بِعَذَابِ اللَّهِ وَسَخَطِهِ كَرِهَ لِقَاءَ اللَّهِ وَكَرِهَ اللَّهُ لِقَاءَهُ»  

[Machine] He entered and saw his son with a running forehead and said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: 'The believer dies with sweat on his forehead.'"  

أَنَّهُ دَخَلَ فَرَأَى ابْنًا لَهُ يَرْشَحُ جَبِينُهُ فَقَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ «يَمُوتُ الْمُؤْمِنُ بِعَرَقِ الْجَبِينِ»  

A funeral procession passed by Messenger of Allah ﷺ who said, "Relieved or relieving?" The people asked, "O Messenger of Allah ﷺ! What is relieved and relieving?" He said, "A believer is relieved (by death) from the troubles and hardships of the world and leaves for the Mercy of Allah, while (the death of) a wicked person relieves the people, the land, the trees, (and) the animals from him." (Using translation from Bukhārī 6512)  

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ «مُسْتَرِيحٌ وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ» فَقَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَنِ الْمُسْتَرِيحُ وَالْمُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْهُ؟ فَقَالَ «الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ نَصَبِ الدُّنْيَا وَأَذَاهَا إِلَى رَحْمَةِ اللَّهِ وَالْمُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْهُ الْعَبْدُ الْفَاجِرُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْهُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلَادُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ»  

[Machine] From Abu Hurairah, the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Indeed, when death comes to a believer, the angels of mercy come to him. When his soul is taken, it is placed in a white silk cloth and is then carried up to the gate of heaven. The angels say, 'We have never smelled a fragrance better than this.' They are told to let him relax because he was in distress. He is then asked, 'What did so-and-so do?' 'What did so-and-so do?' 'What did so-and-so, the woman, do?'"  

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ إِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ قَالَ «إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا حَضَرَهُ الْمَوْتُ حَضَرَتْهُ مَلَائِكَةُ الرَّحْمَةِ فَإِذَا قُبِضَتْ نَفْسُهُ جُعِلَتْ فِي حَرِيرَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ فَيُنْطَلَقُ بِهَا إِلَى بَابِ السَّمَاءِ فَيَقُولُونَ مَا وَجَدْنَا رِيحًا أَطْيَبَ مِنْ هَذِهِ فَيُقَالَ دَعُوهُ يَسْتَرِيحُ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي غَمٍّ فَيُسْأَلُ مَا فَعَلَ فُلَانٌ؟ مَا فَعَلَ فُلَانٌ؟ مَا فَعَلَتْ فُلَانَةُ؟  

[Machine] "The souls of the believers are gathered with the righteous, and the souls of the disbelievers are gathered with the wicked in Hadramaut."  

«أَرْوَاحُ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ تُجْمَعُ بِالْجَابِيَتِيْنِ وَأَرْوَاحُ الْكُفَّارِ تُجْمَعُ بِبُرْهُوتَ سَبِخَةٌ بِحَضْرَمَوْتَ  

[Machine] About the Prophetﷺ he said:

"When a believer passes away, angels of mercy come to him with white silk covers and say: 'Come out to the mercy of Allah.' So, his soul comes out like the sweetest fragrance of musk till they reach the nearest heaven. They ask permission to enter and Allah grants them permission. In every heaven, they ask for his permission and it is granted until they reach the seventh heaven. Then Allah says: [Record the book of My slave in 'Illiyyin and take him back to the earth, for I created them from it, and I shall return them into it and from it I shall extract them a second time] [23.12-14]. At that point, his soul is returned to his body and two angels come and make him sit up."

Regarding disbelievers, angels of punishment come to them with sackcloth and say: "Come out to the wrath of Allah." Then, his soul disperses like the most foul stench imaginable, and they take it up to the lowest heaven. They ask permission to enter and Allah does not give them permission.  

عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ «إِنَّ الْمُؤْمِنَ إِذَا قُبِضَ أَتَتْهُ مَلَائِكَةُ الرَّحْمَةِ بِحَرِيرَةٍ بَيْضَاءَ فَتَقُولُ اخْرُجِي إِلَى رَوْحِ اللَّهِ فَتَخْرُجُ كَأَطْيَبِ رِيحِ مِسْكٍ حَتَّى إِنَّهُمْ لِيُنَاوِلُهُ بَعْضُهُمْ بَعْضًا يَشُمُّونَهُ حَتَّى يَأْتُونَ بِهِ بَابَ السَّمَاءِ فَيَقُولُونَ مَا هَذِهِ الرِّيحُ الطَّيِّبَةُ الَّتِي جَاءَتْ مِنَ الْأَرْضِ؟ وَلَا يَأْتُونَ سَمَاءً إِلَّا قَالُوا مِثْلَ ذَلِكَ حَتَّى يَأْتُونَ بِهِ أَرْوَاحَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ فَلَهُمْ أَشَدُّ فَرَحًا بِهِ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْغَائِبِ بِغَائِبِهِمْ فَيَقُولُونَ مَا فَعَلَ فُلَانٌ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ دَعُوهُ حَتَّى يَسْتَرِيحَ فَإِنَّهُ كَانَ فِي غَمِّ الدُّنْيَا فَيَقُولُ قَدْ مَاتَ أَمَا أَمَاتَكُمْ؟ فَيَقُولُونَ ذُهِبَ بِهِ إِلَى أُمِّهِ الْهَاوِيَةِ وَأَمَّا الْكَافِرُ فَيَأْتِيهُ مَلَائِكَةُ الْعَذَابِ بِمُسْحٍ فَيَقُولُونَ اخْرُجِي إِلَى غَضِبِ اللَّهِ فَتَخْرُجُ كَأَنْتَنِ رِيحِ جِيفَةٍ فَتَذْهَبُ بِهِ إِلَى بَابِ الْأَرْضِ»  

[Machine] The Prophet ﷺ said, "None of you should wish for death or pray for it before it comes to him. When he dies, his deeds come to an end and a believer's life only increases him in goodness."  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «لَا يَتَمَنَّى أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَوْتَ وَلَا يَدْعُو بِهِ قَبْلَ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ إِنَّهُ إِذَا مَاتَ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ وَإِنَّهُ لَا يَزِيدُ الْمُؤْمِنَ عُمُرُهُ إِلَّا خَيْرًا»  

When a man dies, his acts come to an end, but three, recurring charity, or knowledge (by which people) benefit, or a pious son, who prays for him (for the deceased). (Using translation from Muslim 1631)  

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ قَالَ «إِذَا مَاتَ الْإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثٍ صَدَقَةٍ جَارِيَةٍ أَوْ عِلْمٍ يُنْتَفَعُ بِهِ أَوْ وَلَدٍ صَالِحٍ يَدْعُو لَهُ»  

[Machine] Al-Tabarani reported that Al-Tufayl ibn 'Amr al-Dawsi came to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ in Mecca and said, "O Messenger of Allah, come to a fortification with a number of warriors." Abu Zubayr said, "There is a fortress on top of the mountain that is only accessible by means of the ropes." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked him, "Do you have anyone behind you?" He replied, "I do not know," so the Messenger of Allah ﷺ turned away from him.

When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ arrived in Medina, Al-Tufayl ibn 'Amr came to him as an emigrant, accompanied by a man from his tribe. This man contracted a severe fever, which caused him great distress, so he became anxious and took a knife and slit his veins, causing himself to bleed excessively until he died. He was buried, and it was mentioned in what the sleeping person sees at night that Al-Tufayl ibn 'Amr would come to him in a good state, with his hands tied. So the sleeping person said to him, "Is so-and-so (mentioning the man who died) okay?" He replied, "Yes." He asked him, "What did you do?" He replied, "My Lord did good to me and forgave me through my migration to His Prophet ﷺ." The sleeping person asked him, "What did you do with your hands?" He replied, "My Lord said to me, 'We will not rectify from you what you have corrupted of yourself.'" Al-Tufayl then narrated this dream to the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ raised his hands and supplicated, saying, "O Allah, be merciful to him and his hands. O Allah, be merciful to him and his hands. O Allah, be merciful to him and his hands."  

قَدِمَ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو الدَّوْسِيُّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِمَكَّةَ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ هَلُمَّ إِلَى حِصْنٍ وَعَدَدٍ وَعِدَّةٍ قَالَ أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ حِصْنٌ فِي رَأْسِ الْجَبَلِ لَا يُؤْتَى إِلَّا فِي مِثْلِ الشِّرَاكِ فَقَالَ لَهُ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَمَعَكَ مَنْ وَرَاءَكَ؟ » قَالَ لَا أَدْرِي فَأَعْرَضَ عَنْهُ فَلَمَّا قَدِمَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ الْمَدِينَةَ قَدِمَ الطُّفَيْلُ بْنُ عَمْرٍو مُهَاجِرًا إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَمَعَهُ رَجُلٌ مِنْ رَهْطِهِ فَحُمَّ ذَلِكَ الرَّجُلُ حِمَّى شَدِيدَةً فَجَزِعَ فَأَخَذَ شَفْرَةً فَقَطَعَ بِهَا رَوَاجِبَهُ فَتَشَخَّبَتْ حَتَّى مَاتَ فَدُفِنَ ثُمَّ إِنَّهُ جَاءَ فِيمَا يَرَى النَّائِمُ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ إِلَى الطُّفَيْلِ بْنِ عَمْرٍو فِي شَارَةٍ حَسَنَةٍ وَهُوَ مُخَمِّرٌ يَدَهُ فَقَالَ لَهُ الطُّفَيْلُ أَفُلَانٌ؟ قَالَ نَعَمْ قَالَ كَيْفَ فَعَلْتَ؟ قَالَ صَنَعَ بِي رَبِّي خَيْرًا غَفَرَ لِي بِهِجْرَتِي إِلَى نَبِيِّهِ ﷺ قَالَ فَمَا فَعَلَتْ يَدَاكَ؟ قَالَ قَالَ لِي رَبِّي لَنْ نُصْلِحَ مِنْكَ مَا أَفْسَدْتَ مِنْ نَفْسِكَ قَالَ فَقَصَّ الطُّفَيْلُ رُؤْيَاهُ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَرَفَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ يَدَيْهِ «اللَّهُمَّ وَلِيَدَيْهِ فَاغْفِرْ اللَّهُمَّ وَلِيَدَيْهِ فَاغْفِرْ اللَّهُمَّ وَلِيَدَيْهِ فَاغْفِرْ»  

When your companion dies, leave him and do not revile him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4899)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا مَاتَ صَاحِبُكُمْ فَدَعُوهُ»  

When your companion dies, leave him and do not revile him. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4899)   

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا مَاتَ صَاحِبُكُمْ فَدَعُوهُ»  

The Prophet ﷺ said: Make a mention of the virtues of your dead, and refrain from (mentioning) their evils. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 4900)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «اذْكُرُوا مَحَاسِنَ مَوْتَاكُمْ وَكُفُّوا عَنْ مَسَاوِئِهِمْ»  

[Machine] What did Yazid bin Qais do to incur the curse of Allah upon him? They said, "He has died."  

عَائِشَةَ مَا فَعَلَ يَزِيدُ بْنُ قَيْسٍ عَلَيْهِ لَعْنَةُ اللَّهِ؟ قَالُوا قَدْ مَاتَ  

"Do not vilify the dead (and) by that harm the living." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1982)  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «لَا تَسُبُّوا الْأَمْوَاتَ فَتُؤْذُوا الْأَحْيَاءَ»  

[Machine] "They passed by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ during a funeral procession and spoke ill of it, so he said ﷺ, 'It is deserved.' They passed by another funeral procession and spoke well of it, so he said ﷺ, 'It is deserved.' Umar said, 'O Messenger of Allah, what is deserved?' He said, 'If they pass by this one and speak ill of it, then the Fire is deserved. And if they pass by this one and speak well of it, then Paradise is deserved. And you are the witnesses of Allah on earth.'"  

مَرُّوا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» وَمَرُّوا بِأُخْرَى فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ مَا وَجَبَتْ؟ قَالَ «مَرُّوا بِتِلْكَ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَوَجَبَتِ النَّارُ وَمَرُّوا بِهَذِهِ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَوَجَبَتِ الْجَنَّةُ وَأَنْتُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»  

[Machine] Pass by the Messenger of Allah ﷺ on a funeral and praise it better than the merits of goodness. So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "You are witnesses of Allah on the earth."  

مُرَّ عَلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَّ عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا مِنْ مَنَاقِبِ الْخَيْرِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَجَبَتْ أَنْتُمْ شُهُودُ اللهِ فِي الأَرْضِ  

“A funeral (procession) passed by the Prophet ﷺ and they praised (the deceased) and spoke well of him. He said: ‘(Paradise is) guaranteed for him.’ Then another funeral passed by and they spoke badly of him, and he (the Prophet ﷺ) said: ‘(Hell is) guaranteed for him.’ It was said: ‘O Messenger of Allah, you said that (Paradise was) guaranteed for this one and that (Hell was) guaranteed for the other one.’ He said: ‘It is the testimony of the people, and the believers are the witnesses of Allah on earth.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1491)  

مُرَّ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ ﷺ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ وَجَبَتْ فَقِيلَ يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ قُلْتَ لِهَذَا وَجَبَتْ وَقُلْتَ لِهَذَا وَجَبَتْ فَقَالَ شَهَادَةُ الْقَوْمِ وَالْمُؤْمِنُونَ شُهَدَاءُ اللهِ فِي الأَرْضِ  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When a Muslim dies, four people from his closest neighbors testify for him that they know nothing but good about him, except that Allah, the Exalted, says, 'I have accepted your testimony and forgiven him what you do not know.'"  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يَمُوتُ فَيَشْهَدُ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةُ أَهْلِ أَبْيَاتٍ مِنْ جِيرَتِهِ الْأَدْنَيْنَ أَنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْلَمُونَ إِلَّا خَيْرًا إِلَّا قَالَ اللَّهُ جَلَّ وَعَلَا قَدْ قَبِلْتُ عِلْمَكُمْ فِيهِ وَغَفَرْتُ لَهُ مَا لَا تَعْلَمُونَ»  

[Machine] I heard Anas ibn Malik say that a man died and they passed by his funeral in the presence of the Prophet ﷺ and they spoke ill of him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is obligatory." Then they passed by another funeral and spoke well of him. The Prophet ﷺ said, "It is obligatory." Omar asked him about that and he said, "You are the witnesses of Allah on Earth."  

سَمِعْتُ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ يَقُولُ مَاتَ رَجُلٌ فَمَرُّوا بِجَنَازَتِهِ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» وَمَرُّوا بِأُخْرَى فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ «وَجَبَتْ» فَسَأَلَهُ عُمَرُ عَنْ ذَلِكَ فَقَالَ «أَنْتُمْ شُهُودُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»  

I came to Madinah and found that sickness was occurring in it and death was widespread. I sat with 'Umar bin al-Khattab and a funeral passed by him. People spoke well of the deceased and ‘Umar said: It is guaranteed. Then another funeral passed by and people spoke well of the deceased and ‘Umar said: It is guaranteed. Then a third funeral passed by and people spoke badly of the deceased and ‘Umar said: It is guaranteed. Abul-Aswad said: What is guaranteed, O Ameer al-Mu'mineen? He said: I am saying what the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: ʿAny Muslim in whose favour four people testify, Allah will admit him to Paradise.ʿ We said: And three? He said: ʿAnd three.ʿ We said: And two? He said: ʿAnd two ʿ Then we did not ask him about one. (Using translation from Aḥmad 139)   

عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ ثُمَّ مُرَّ بِأُخْرَى فَأُثْنِيَ عَلَى صَاحِبُهَا شَرًّا فَقَالَ عُمَرُ وَجَبَتْ قَالَ أَبُو الْأَسْوَدِ وَمَا وَجَبَتْ يَا أَمِيرَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ قَالَ كَمَا قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «أَيُّمَا مُسْلِمٍ يَشْهَدُ لَهُ أَرْبَعَةٌ بِخَيْرٍ إِلَّا أَدْخَلَهُ اللَّهُ الْجَنَّةَ» قَالَ قُلْنَا وَثَلَاثَةٌ قَالَ «وَثَلَاثَةٌ» قَالَ فَقُلْنَا وَاثْنَانِ قَالَ «وَاثْنَانِ» وَلَمْ نَسْأَلَهُ عَنِ الْوَاحِدِ  

It was narrated from Ibn ‘Abbas and ‘Aishah that Abu Bakr kissed the Prophet ﷺ when he died. (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1457)  

أَنَّ أَبَا بَكْرٍ قَبَّلَ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ وَهُوَ مَيِّتٌ  

[Machine] He heard Abu Hurayrah saying, "Abu Bakr entered the mosque while 'Umar was addressing the people. When he entered the house of the Prophet ﷺ, where he passed away, which was the house of 'Aisha, the Prophet's wife, he uncovered his face, as it was covered with a cool and fresh ink stain. He looked at his face, then he poured water on it, kissed it, and said, 'By my father, Allah will not cause you to experience death upon death. Indeed, you have experienced the death that will never be followed by another death.'"  

أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ يَقُولُ دَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ الْمَسْجِدَ وَعُمَرُ يُكَلِّمُ النَّاسَ حِينَ دَخَلَ بَيْتَ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ الَّذِي تُوُفِّيَ فِيهِ وَهُوَ بَيْتُ عَائِشَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ فَكَشَفَ عَنْ وَجْهِهِ بُرْدَ حِبَرَةٍ كَانَ مُسَجًّى بِهِ فَنَظَرَ إِلَى وَجْهِهِ ثُمَّ أَكَبَّ عَلَيْهِ فَقَبَّلَهُ وَقَالَ «بِأَبِي أَنْتَ فَوَاللَّهِ لَا يَجْمَعُ اللَّهُ عَلَيْكَ مَوْتَتَيْنِ لَقَدْ مِتَّ الْمُوتَةَ الَّتِي لَا تَمُوتُ بَعْدَهَا»  

[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "When you cremate the deceased, then perform the odd-numbered prayer."  

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «إِذَا جَمَّرْتُمُ الْمَيِّتَ فَأَوْتِرُوا»  

"The Messenger of Allah came to us when we were washing his daughter. He said: 'Wash her three times, or five, or more than that if you think that (is necessary), with water and lotus leaves, and put camphor, or some camphor in (the water) the last time. And when you have finished, inform me.' When we finished, we informed him and he threw his waist-wrap to us and said: 'Shroud her in it."' He said: "Hafsah said: 'We washed her three, or five, or seven times.' Umm 'Atiyyah said: 'We combed her hair into three braids."' (Using translation from Nasāʾī 1890)   

دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ وَنَحْنُ نَغْسِلُ ابْنَتَهُ فَقَالَ «اغْسِلْنَهَا ثَلَاثًا أَوْ خَمْسًا أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِنْ رَأَيْتُنَّ ذَلِكَ بِمَاءٍ وَسِدْرٍ وَاجْعَلْنَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ كَافُورًا أَوْ شَيْئًا مِنْ كَافُورٍ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتُنَّ فَآذِنَّنِي» قَالَتْ فَلَمَّا فَرَغْنَا آذَنَّاهُ قَالَتْ فَأَلْقَى إِلَيْنَا حِقْوَهُ وَقَالَ «أَشْعِرْنَهَا إِيَّاهُ» قَالَ وَقَالَتْ حَفْصَةُ عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ اغْسِلْنَهَا مَرَّتَيْنِ أَوْ ثَلَاثًا أَوْ خَمْسًا أَوْ سَبْعًا قَالَتْ أُمُّ عَطِيَّةَ وَمَشَطْتُهَا ثَلَاثَةَ قُرُونٍ وَكَانَ فِيهِ أَنَّهُ قَالَ «ابْدَأْنَ بِمَيَامِنِهَا وَمَوَاضِعِ الْوُضُوءِ»  

“The Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon us when we were washing his daughter Umm Kulthum. He said: ‘Wash her three or five times, or more than that if you think you need to, with water and lote leaves, and put camphor or a little camphor in (the water) for the last washing. When you have finished, call for me.’ When we finished, we called him, and he gave his waist-wrapper to us and said: ‘Shroud her with it.’” (Using translation from Ibn Mājah 1458)   

تُوُفِّيَتِ ابْنَةٌ لِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَقَالَ «اغْسِلْنَهَا بِالْمَاءِ وَالسِّدْرِ ثَلَاثًا أَوْ خَمْسًا أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِنَّ رَأَيْتُنَّ ذَلِكَ وَاجْعَلْنَ فِي آخِرِهِنَّ شَيْئًا مِنْ كَافُورٍ فَإِذَا فَرَغْتُنَّ فَآذِنَّنِي» فَآذَنَّاهُ فَأَلْقَى إِلَيْنَا حِقْوَهُ وَقَالَ «أَشْعِرْنَهَا إِيَّاهُ»
