Hadith 3133

عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ: ((مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ وَمَنِ انْتَظَرَ حَتَّى يُفْرَغَ مِنْهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ))، قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ! وَمَا قِيرَاطَانِ؟ قَالَ: ((مِثْلُ الْجَبَلَيْنِ الْعَظِيمَيْنِ)) (وَعَنْهُ مِنْ طَرِيقٍ ثَانٍ) أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: ((مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَى جَنَازَةٍ فَاتَّبَعَهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ مِثْلَيْ أُحُدٍ وَمَنْ صَلَّى وَلَمْ يَتَّبِعْهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ، قَالَ ابْنُ بَكْرٍ الْقِيرَاطُ مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ))
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."
