عَنْ مَيْمُونَةَ زَوْجِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ((مَا مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةٌ إِلَّا شُفِّعُوا فِيهِ))، قَالَ أَبُو الْمَلِيحِ: الْأُمَّةُ أَرْبَعُونَ إِلَى مَائَةٍ فَصَاعِدًا
It is narrated from Sayyida Maymunah (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If a community prays the funeral prayer for a Muslim, their intercession is accepted on his behalf. Abu Mulaikh, the narrator, says: A community refers to forty, a hundred, or even more people.
