عَن أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الخُدْرِيَّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «إِذَا وُضِعَتِ الجِنَازَةُ وَاحْتَمَلَهَا الرِّجَالُ عَلَى أَعْنَاقِهِمْ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ صَالِحَةً قَالَتْ: قَدِّمُونِي، وَإِنْ كَانَتْ غَيْرَ صَالِحَةٍ قَالَتْ: يَا وَيْلَهَا أَيْنَ يَذْهَبُونَ بِهَا؟ يَسْمَعُ صَوْتَهَا كُلُّ شَيْءٍ إِلَّا الإِنْسَانَ، وَلَوْ سَمِعَهُ صَعِقَ».
Kutoka kwa Abuu Saidi Al-Khudry -radhi za Allah ziwe juu yake- yakwamba Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake: "Likiwekwa Jeneza, na wanaume wakalibeba katika shingo zao, likiwa ni la mtu mwema basi husema: Niwahisheni, na likiwa si la mtu mwema basi husema: Ubaya ulioje, mnalipeleka wapi? Huisikia sauti yake kila kitu isipokuwa mwanadamu, na lau angelisikia basi angezimia".
Abu Sa‘īd al-Khudri (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "When the funeral is placed and men carry it on their shoulders, if it was righteous, it says: Take me forward, but if it was not righteous, it says: Woe to it! Where are they taking it? Everything hears its voice except man, and if he could hear it, he would fall unconscious."
Maiti mwema huanza kuona habari njema kabla ya kuzikwa kwake, na kafiri hufadhaika, na kuona mambo kinyume na hivyo.
Baadhi ya suti husikiwa na viumbe vingine tofauti na mwanadamu, na wala mwanadamu hawezi kuzisikia.
Sunna ni kulibeba Jeneza juu ya mabeba ya wanaume na si wanawake; kwa katazo la Mtume rehema na amani ziwe juu yake kuwakataza wanawake kusindikiza Jeneza.
