Original Arabic

حَدَّثَنَا بَهْزٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ يَعْلَى بْنِ عَطَاءٍ، عَنْ الْوَلِيدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، حَدَّثَ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، أَنَّهُ قَالَ: " مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَى جِنَازَةٍ فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ، وَمَنْ صَلَّى عَلَيْهَا وَتَبِعَهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ "، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ عُمَرَ: انْظُرْ مَا تُحَدِّثُ بِهِ يَا أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، فَإِنَّكَ تُكْثِرُ الْحَدِيثَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِهِ، فَذَهَبَ بِهِ إِلَى عَائِشَةَ، فَصَدَّقَتْ أَبَا هُرَيْرَةَ، فَقَالَ أَبُو هُرَيْرَةَ: " وَاللهِ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، مَا كَانَ يَشْغَلُنِي عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ الصَّفْقُ فِي الْأَسْوَاقِ، مَا كَانَ يُهِمُّنِي مِنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَّا كَلِمَةً يُعَلِّمُنِيهَا، أَوْ لُقْمَةً يَلْقُمُنِيهَا " (١)،

Translation

English translation

It is narrated from Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) said: Whoever offers the funeral prayer for someone will receive a reward equal to one qirat, and whoever waits until the burial is completed will receive a reward equal to two qirats. Upon hearing this hadith, Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said to him: Abu Huraira! Be careful when narrating hadith, because you narrate a great number of hadiths from the Holy Prophet (ﷺ). Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) took his hand and brought him to Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her). Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) confirmed the statement of Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him). Then Abu Huraira (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Abu Abdur Rahman, by Allah, my dealings in the markets did not prevent me from the Holy Prophet (ﷺ). My only purpose was that the Holy Prophet (ﷺ) would explain something to me or give me a morsel to eat.
