Arabic hadith text
وَعَنْ جَابِرٍ قَالَ: مَرَّتْ جَنَازَةٌ فَقَامَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ وَقُمْنَا مَعَهُ فَقُلْنَا: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّهَا يَهُودِيَّةٌ فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ الْمَوْتَ فَزَعٌ فَإِذَا رَأَيْتُمْ الْجِنَازَة فَقومُوا»
Translation
Jabir reported: A funeral passed by, and the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, stood for it. We stood with him and said, ‘Messenger of Allah, it is a Jewish woman.’ He said, ‘Death is an alarming event. When you see a funeral, stand.’
