Abdur Rahman bin Mehran (may Allah have mercy on him) says that when the time of the death of Hazrat Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) approached, he began to say: "Do not set up any tent over me, do not take fire with me, and take me quickly, because I heard the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) say: When a righteous man is placed on the bier, he says, 'Take me forward quickly, take me forward quickly,' and if a sinful man is placed on the bier, he says, 'Alas! Where are you taking me?'"
