It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah, may Allah be pleased with him, that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Whoever offers the funeral prayer for a deceased person will have a reward equal to one qirat, and whoever waits until the burial is completed will have a reward equal to two qirats. The Companions asked: O Messenger of Allah! What are two qirats? He, peace and blessings be upon him, said: Equal to two great mountains. (Second chain) The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Whoever remains with the deceased after offering the funeral prayer will receive a reward as great as two mountains like Uhud, and whoever returns after offering the prayer and does not remain with the deceased will receive a reward as great as one mountain."
