Mishkat al-Masabih 1678 — Mentioning the good deeds of the deceased
وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اذْكُرُوا مَحَاسِنَ مَوْتَاكُمْ وَكُفُّوا عَنْ مُسَاوِيهِمْ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ
Ibn ‘Umar reported God’s messenger as saying, “Mention the good qualities of your dead and refrain from mentioning their bad ones.” Abu Dawud and Tirmidhi transmitted it.
