Silsilat al-Ahadith al-Sahihah

Abdur Rahman bin Abu Amrah Ansari says: Our master Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) was informed about the funeral of a person from his tribe. He delayed a little so that people could settle in their places. When he arrived and people saw him, they began to move forward and backward, and some individuals stood up so that he could sit in their place. He said: Be aware! I heard the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) say: "The most excellent gathering is the one that is spacious."
