وَعَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «اذْكُرُوا مَحَاسِنَ مَوْتَاكُمْ وَكُفُّوا عَنْ مُسَاوِيهِمْ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُدَ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ

Translation

Ibn Umar reported that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, ‘Mention the good qualities of your dead and refrain from their bad ones.’ Abu Dawud and al-Tirmidhi transmitted it.
