Chapter on what is reported regarding carrying the funeral and hastening with it without running
Al-Fath ar-Rabbani 3197 — on what is reported regarding carrying
عَنِ ابْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: لَا أَعْلَمُ إِلَّا رَفَعَ الْحَدِيثَ، قَالَ: ((أَسْرِعُوا بِجَنَائِزِكُمْ، فَإِنْ كَانَتْ صَالِحَةً عَجَّلْتُمُوهَا إِلَى الْخَيْرِ، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ طَالِحَةً اسْتَرَحْتُمْ مِنْهَا وَوَضَعْتُمُوهَا عَنْ رِقَابِكُمْ))
Ibn al-Musayyib says that Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) said, the narrator says: I think he narrated it as a marfu’ hadith, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Hasten with your funerals; if the deceased was righteous, you are taking him quickly towards goodness, and if he was evil, then you will quickly be relieved of him and will remove him from your shoulders.
