وَعَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اللَّه عَلَيْهِ وسلمى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: "إِذَا وُضِعَتِ الْجِنَازَةُ، فَاحْتَمَلَهَا الرِّجَالُ علي أَعْنَاقِهِمْ، فَإِنْ كَانَتْ صَالِحَةً، قَالَ: قَدِّمُونِي، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ غَيْرَ صَالِحَةٍ، قَالَتْ لأَهْلِهَا: يَا وَيْلَهَا أَيْنَ تَذْهَبُونَ بِهَا؟ يَسْمَعُ صَوْتَهَا كُلُّ شيء إِلاَّ الأنسان، وَلَوْ سمع الأنسان لصعق” ((رَوَاهُ البُخَارِيّ)).
Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "When a dead body is placed on a bier and men carry it on their shoulders, if he was a pious man, it (corpse) says: 'Take me in haste.' But if he was not righteous, it says to its bearers: 'Woe to it. Where are you taking it?' Everything except man hears its voice. Had a human being heard its voice, he would have surely fallen into swoon." [Al- Bukhari].
