باب فضل الصلاة على الجنازة واتباعها
Virtue of Funeral Prayer and Following It
Hadith Number: 551
551 صحيح حديث ابي هريرة رضي الله عنه، قال: قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: من شهد الجنازة حتى يصلي عليها فله قيراط، ومن شهد حتى تدفن كان له قيراطان، قيل: وما القيراطان قال: مثل الجبلين العظيمين
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever attends a funeral and then offers the funeral prayer will receive the reward of one qirat, and whoever remains until the burial will receive the reward of two qirats. It was asked: How much are two qirats? He replied: Like two great mountains (i.e., do not consider it like the qirat of this world, which is one-twelfth of a dirham. In another narration, it is mentioned that the qirat of the Hereafter is equal to the mountain of Uhud).
