“When a Muslim dies and forty people who do not associate
anything Allah, pray the funeral prayer over him, Allah accepts their
prayers for him.”

and peace be upon him, say this hadith.

REWARD FOR ATTENDING A FUNERAL

|H 942

“Whosoever is present during a funeral until its prayer has been
concluded will receive a qirat (in reward) and whosoever is present
until the burial will receive two qirats - it was asked, „What are the
two qirats?‟ He replied, „Two qirats are as great as two mountains.‟”

Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Abu Hurariah who related that the
Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
