ذِكْرُ الْخِصَالِ الَّتِي تَتْبَعُ جَنَازَةِ الْمَيِّتِ، وَمَا يَرْجِعُ مِنْهَا عَنْهُ، وَمَا يَبْقَى مِنْهَا مَعَهُ
Three things follow the bier of a dead man. Two of them come back and one is left with him: the members of his family, wealth and his good deeds. The members of his family and wealth come back and the deeds alone are left with him. (Using translation from Muslim 2960)
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ «يَتْبَعُ الْمَيِّتَ ثَلَاثَةٌ فَيَرْجِعُ اثْنَانِ وَيَبْقَى وَاحِدٌ يَتْبَعُهُ أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَعَمَلُهُ فَيَرْجِعُ أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَيَبْقَى عَمَلُهُ»
