«إذا صلوا على جنازة فأثنوا خيرا يقول الرب: أجزت شهادتهم فيما يعلمون وأغفر له ما لا يعلمون»
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
"When people pray the funeral prayer over someone and speak well of him (the deceased), the Lord says: I have accepted their testimony as far as what they know, and I forgive him what they do not know."
