The Ruling of crying and wailing over a Dead Person

وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ رَضِيَ اَللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اَللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ دخل علي ابنه إبراهيم رَضِيَ اللَّه عَنْهُ وَهُوَ يَجُودُ بِنَفْسِهِ فَجَعَلَتْ عَيْنَا رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ تَذْرِفَانِ ‏.‏ فَقَالَ لَهُ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ‏:‏ وَأَنْتَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ‏؟‏‏!‏ فَقَالَ‏:‏ “يَا ابْنَ عَوْفٍ إِنَّهَا رَحْمَةٌ” ثُمَّ أَتْبَعَهَا بِأُخْرَى، فَقَالَ‏:‏”إِنَّ الْعَيْنَ تَدْمَعُ وَالْقَلْبَ يَحْزَنُ ، وَلَا نَقُولُ إِلَّا مَا يُرْضِي رَبَّنَا، وَإِنَّا بِفِرَاقِك يَا إِبْرَاهِيم لَمَحْزُونُونَ‏"‏‏.‏ ‏(‏‏(‏رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ، وروي مُسْلِمٌ بعضه‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏ والأحاديث في الباب كثيرة في الصحيح مشهورة والله أعلم‏.‏

Anas (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came to his son Ibrahim (May Allah be pleased with him) when he was breathing his last. The eyes of the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) began shedding tears. 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Auf (May Allah be pleased with him) said, "O Messenger of Allah, you too weep?" He (ﷺ) said, "O Ibn 'Auf! It is mercy." Then he began to weep and said, "The eyes are shedding tears and the heart is grieved, and we will not say except what pleases our Rubb. O Ibrahim! Indeed we are grieved by your departure." [Al-Bukhari].
