Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Jabr bin Atik narrates from his uncle that I attended the funeral of an Ansari man with the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). His family members were weeping over him. I said, "Do you weep while the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) is present among you?" The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, "Leave them, let them weep. When it becomes obligatory upon him (when he is placed in the grave), they will not weep."
