أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ يَرْوِيهِ ، قَالَ : " مَنْ تَبِعَ جَنَازَةً فَصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا ، فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ ، وَمَنْ تَبِعَهَا حَتَّى يُفْرَغَ مِنْهَا ، فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ ، أَصْغَرُهُمَا مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ ، أَوْ أَحَدُهُمَا مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ " .
Narrated Abu Hurairah: If anyone attends the funeral and prays over (the dead), he will get the reward of one qirat, and if anyone attends the funeral until the completion (of the burial), he will get the reward of two qirats, the smaller of them being equivalent of Uhud, or one of them being equivalent to Uhud.

He heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say: If anyone goes out of his house, accompanies bier and prays over it. . . . He then mentioned the rest of the tradition as narrated by Sufyan. Thereupon Ibn Umar sent someone to Aishah (asking her about it). She replied: Abu Hurairah spoke the truth.
