[Machine] Abu Al-Malih Al-Hudhali went out in a funeral. When the deceased was placed on the bed, he approached the people and said, "Straighten your rows and improve your intercession." Then Abu Al-Malih said, "Abdullah bin Salit informed me, and he was the brother of Maymunah, the mother of the believers, from Maymunah, from the Prophet ﷺ , who said, 'Whoever prays upon him, a nation will intercede for their brother.' And the nation is forty to one hundred, the group is ten to forty, and the individual is three to ten."
