Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said that Sayyiduna Usayd bin Hudayr (may Allah be pleased with him) was among the most virtuous of people, and he used to say: "If I were always in one of three states, I would certainly be among the people of Paradise, and I have no doubt about that: when I recite the Qur'an, or when I listen to it being recited, and when I hear the sermon of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and when I attend a funeral - and I have never attended a funeral but that I spoke to myself of nothing other than what is going to be done with it (the deceased) and the end towards which it is heading."
