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 اللهِ ﷺ مُرَّ عَلَيْهِ بِجِنَازَةٍ فَقَالَ «مُسْتَرِيحٌ وَمُسْتَرَاحٌ مِنْهُ» فَقَالُوا وَمَا الْمُسْتَرِيحُ وَالْمُسْتَرَاحُ مِنْهُ؟ قَالَ «الْعَبْدُ الْمُؤْمِنُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْ نَصَبِ الدُّنْيَا وَأَذَاهَا وَالْعَبْدُ الْفَاجِرُ يَسْتَرِيحُ مِنْهُ الْعِبَادُ وَالْبِلَادُ وَالشَّجَرُ وَالدَّوَابُّ»
