وَعَنْهُ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ ، صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: “يَتْبَعُ الْمَيِّتَ ثَلاَثَةٌ: أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَعَمَلُهُ: فَيَرْجِعُ اثْنَانِ ويبقى واحد: يرجع أَهْلُهُ وَمَالُهُ وَيَبْقَى عَمَلُهُ". ((مُتَّفَقٌ عَلَيْهِ)) .
Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "Three (things) follow a dead person: Members of his family, his property and his deeds. Two of them return; and one remains with him. The people and his wealth return; his deeds remain with him". [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
