وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَحْوُهُ، وَفِيهِ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا فِي مَنَاقِبِ الْخَيْرِ، (وَقَالَ فِي الْأُخْرَى) فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا فِي مَنَاقِبِ الشَّرِّ، فَقَالَ: ((وَجَبَتْ))، ثُمَّ قَالَ: ((إِنَّكُمْ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ))
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) also narrated a similar hadith from the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), except that in it: People mentioned the good qualities of one (funeral), and the bad qualities of the other (funeral), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: It has become obligatory. Then he said: Indeed, you are Allah’s witnesses on the earth.
