أَخْبَرَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ زُرَارَةَ ، قال : أَنْبَأَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ ، عَنْ أَبِي قِلَابَةَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ رَضِيعٍ لِعَائِشَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهَا ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ : " لَا يَمُوتُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ فَيُصَلِّي عَلَيْهِ أُمَّةٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ فَيَبْلُغُوا أَنْ يَكُونُوا مِائَةً فَيَشْفَعُوا إِلَّا شُفِّعُوا فِيهِ " .
´It was narrated from 'Aishah that the Prophet said:` "No Muslim dies and a group of people whose number reaches one hundred offers the funeral prayer for him, interceding fro him, but their intercession for him will be accepted."

Explanation & Benefits
Shaykh Dr. Abdur Rahman Freywai
Explanation:
1:
From this, the virtue of having a large number of people in the funeral prayer (salat al-janazah) is established.
In one narration of Muslim, forty Muslim men are mentioned,
and in some narrations, three rows are mentioned.
These hadiths have been reconciled in such a way that they were stated in response to the questions of different questioners on different occasions.
It is also possible that at first, the Prophet (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) was informed about the intercession being accepted for a certain number of people, then for forty, and then for three rows—even if those three rows are less than forty.
This is Allah’s grace and favor upon His servants.
