The Command To Stand Up for A Funeral
Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا يُوسُفُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَجَّاجٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَجْلاَنَ، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، وَأَبِي، سَعِيدٍ قَالاَمَا رَأَيْنَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم شَهِدَ جَنَازَةً قَطُّ فَجَلَسَ حَتَّى تُوضَعَ .
Translation
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah and Abu Sa'eed said
"We never saw the Messenger of Allah attend any funeral where he sat down until (the body) was placed (in the grave)."
