Riyad as-Salihin - On people praising the dead person Hadith

Chapter: On people praising the
dead person

950. Anas said, "A funeral procession passed by and they were praising the
dead man. The Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, said, 'It is
mandatory.' Then another passed and they were speaking ill of the dead man. He
said, 'It is mandatory.' 'Umar ibn al-Khattab said, 'What is mandatory?' He
said, 'You praised this one, and so the Garden is mandatory for him and you
spoke evil of this one, so the Fire is mandatory for him. You are the witnesses
of Allah on the earth.'" [Agreed upon]

951. Abu'l-Aswad said, "I came to Madina and was sitting with 'Umar ibn
al-Khattab when a funeral passed by and the dead man was praised. 'Umar said,
'It is mandatory.' Then another passed by and they praised the dead. 'Umar said,
'It is mandatory.' Then a third passed by and they spoke ill of the dead. 'Umar
said, 'It is mandatory.'" Abu'l-Aswad said, "I said, 'What is mandatory, Amir
al-Mu'minin?' He said, 'I say as the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him
peace, said, "Any Muslim to whose goodness four people testify, will be admitted
by Allah to the Garden." We said, "And if three do?" He said, "Three as well."
We said, "And two." He said, "Two also." Then we did not ask him about one.'"
