the Messenger of Allah established the bond of brotherhood between two men. One of them was killed and the other died after him. We offered the funeral prayer for him, and the Prophet said: "What did you say?" They said: "O Allah, forgive him; O Allah, have mercy on him; O Allah, join him with his companion." The Prophet said: "Where is his Salah in comparison to his companion's Salah? Where are his deeds in comparison to his companion's deeds? Indeed the difference between heaven and Earth." (One of narrators) 'Amr bin Maimun Said: "I was happy with that because he raised it for me."  

عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ رُبَيِّعَةَ السُّلَمِيِّ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ﷺ عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ﷺ آخَى بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ فَقُتِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَمَاتَ الآخَرُ بَعْدَهُ فَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَا قُلْتُمْ قَالُوا دَعَوْنَا لَهُ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ اللَّهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ اللَّهُمَّ أَلْحِقْهُ بِصَاحِبِهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَيْنَ صَلاَتُهُ بَعْدَ صَلاَتِهِ وَأَيْنَ عَمَلُهُ بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ فَلَمَا بَيْنَهُمَا كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ قَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ أَعْجَبَنِي لأَنَّهُ أَسْنَدَ لِي  

The Messenger of Allah ﷺ made a brotherhood between two men, one of whom was killed (in Allah's path), and a week or thereabouts later the other died, and we prayed at his funeral). The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked: What did you say? We replied: We prayed for him and said: O Allah, forgive him, and join him to his companion. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: What about his prayers since the time the other died, and his fasting since the time the other died--the narrator Shu'bah doubted the words, "his fasting--and his deeds since the time the other died. The distance between them is just like the distance between heaven and earth.  

آخَى رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ فَقُتِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَمَاتَ الآخَرُ بَعْدَهُ بِجُمُعَةٍ أَوْ نَحْوِهَا فَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ مَا قُلْتُمْ فَقُلْنَا دَعَوْنَا لَهُ وَقُلْنَا اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ وَأَلْحِقْهُ بِصَاحِبِهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ فَأَيْنَ صَلاَتُهُ بَعْدَ صَلاَتِهِ وَصَوْمُهُ بَعْدَ صَوْمِهِ شَكَّ شُعْبَةُ فِي صَوْمِهِ وَعَمَلُهُ بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ إِنَّ بَيْنَهُمَا كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ

[Machine] On the authority of Ubayd ibn Khalid al-Sulami, who was one of the companions of the Prophet ﷺ , he said: The Prophet ﷺ had two men who were brothers. One of them was killed in the time of the Prophet ﷺ , and then the other one died. So they prayed over him, and the Prophet ﷺ said, "What did you say?" They said, "O Allah, forgive him. O Allah, have mercy on him. O Allah, join him with his companion." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Where is his Salah (prayer) after his Salah? And where is his fasting or his deeds after his deeds? The distance between them is greater than the distance between the sky and the earth."  

عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِيِّ وَكَانَ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ آخَى النَّبِيُّ ﷺ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ قُتِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا عَلَى عَهْدِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺثُمَّ مَاتَ الْآخَرُ فَصَلَّوْا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ مَا قُلْتُمْ؟ قَالَ قُلْنَا اللهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ اللهُمَّ ارْحَمْهُ اللهُمَّ أَلْحِقْهُ بِصَاحِبِهِ فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ ﷺ فَأَيْنَ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدَ صَلَاتِهِ؟ وَأَيْنَ صِيَامُهُ أَوْ عَمَلُهُ بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ؟ مَا بَيْنَهُمَا أَبْعَدُ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ  

[Machine] I heard Ubaid bin Khalid say, "The Messenger of Allah ﷺ pointed between two men, and one of them was killed while the other remained. After the deceased was buried, they prayed for him and asked Allah to forgive him, have mercy on him, and reunite him with his companion. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ asked them, 'What did you say?' They replied, 'We asked Allah to forgive him, have mercy on him, and reunite him with his companion.' The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'Where is his prayer after his prayer? Where is his actions after his actions?' He said, 'And I think he said, 'Where is his fasting after his fasting?' By the One in whose hand is my soul, the distance between them is greater than the distance between the heavens and the earth.' Umar bin Maymun said, 'I was amazed by this hadith because it has been attributed to me.'"  

سَمِعْتُ عُبَيْدَ بْنَ خَالِدٍ يَقُولُ آخَى رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ؛ فَقُتِلَ أَحَدُهُمَا وَبَقِيَ الْآخَرُ ثُمَّ مَاتَ فَصَلَّوْا عَلَيْهِ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَا قُلْتُمْ ؟ قَالُوا دَعَوْنَا اللهَ ﷻ أَنْ يَغْفِرَ لَهُ وَيَرْحَمَهُ وَيُلْحِقَهُ بِصَاحِبِهِ؛ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَأَيْنَ صَلَاتُهُ بَعْدَ صَلَاتِهِ وَأَيْنَ عَمَلُهُ بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ ؟ قَالَ وَأَظُنُّهُ قَالَ وَأَيْنَ صَوْمُهُ بَعْدَ صَوْمِهِ ؟ وَالَّذِي نَفْسِي بِيَدِهِ لِلَّذِي بَيْنَهُمَا أَبْعَدُ مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالْأَرْضِ قَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ مَيْمُونٍ فَأَعْجَبَنِي هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ لِأَنَّهُ أُسْنِدَ لِي  

"عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللهِ بْنِ خَالِدٍ السُّلَمِى قَالَ: أَخَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بَيْنَ رَجُلَيْنِ فِى أَصْحَابِهِ فَقُتلَ أَحَدُهُما وَمَاتَ الآخَرُ بَعْدَهُ فَصَلَّيْنَا عَلَيْهِ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ الله ﷺ : مَا قُلْتُمْ؟ قَالَ: دَعَوْنَا لَهُ اللَّهُمَّ أَلْحِقْه بِصَاحِبِه، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ : فَأَيْنَ صلاته بَعْدَ صَلاتِهِ، وَأَينَ صومه بَعْدَ صَوْمِهِ، وَأينَ عمله بَعْدَ عَمَلِهِ، بَيْنَهُما كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ والأَرْضِ".
