حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ بْنُ عُيَيْنَةَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، سَمِعَ سَعِيدَ بْنَ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ ‏

"‏ أَسْرِعُوا بِالْجَنَازَةِ فَإِنْ يَكُنْ خَيْرًا تُقَدِّمُوهَا إِلَيْهِ وَإِنْ يَكُنْ شَرًّا تَضَعُوهُ عَنْ رِقَابِكُمْ ‏"

Abu Hurairah narrated that:

The Prophet said: "Hurry up with the funeral (procession) for if it was good, you are advancing it to good, and if it was evil, then you are taking it off your necks."

Al-Mubarakfuri — Tuhfat al-Ahwadhi

قَوْلُهُ : ( يَبْلُغُ بِهِ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ) أَيْ يَرْفَعُ الْحَدِيثَ إِلَيْهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَوْلُهُ : ( أَسْرِعُوا ) أَمْرٌ مِنْ الْإِسْرَاعِ. قَالَ الْحَافِظُ فِي الْفَتْحِ : نَقَلَ اِبْنُ قُدَامَةَ أَنَّ الْأَمْرَ فِيهِ لِلِاسْتِحْبَابِ بِلَا خِلَافٍ بَيْنَ الْعُلَمَاءِ , وَشَذَّ اِبْنُ حَزْمٍ فَقَالَ بِوُجُوبِهِ. وَالْمُرَادُ بِالْإِسْرَاعِ شِدَّةُ الْمَشْيِ , وَعَلَى ذَلِكَ حَمَلَهُ بَعْضُ السَّلَفِ وَهُوَ قَوْلُ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ. قَالَ صَاحِبُ الْهِدَايَةِ : وَيَمْشُونَ بِهَا مُسْرِعِينَ دُونَ الْخَبَبِ. وَفِي الْمَبْسُوطِ لَيْسَ فِيهِ شَيْءٌ مُؤَقَّتٌ غَيْرَ أَنَّ الْعَجَلَةَ أَحَبُّ إِلَى أَبِي حَنِيفَةَ وَعَنْ الشَّافِعِيِّ وَالْجُمْهُ…

Authentic Sahih Muslim 944c

Hasten at a funeral, for if (the dead person) is good, you would (soon) bring him close to the good. And if it is otherwise, it is an evil of which you are ridding yourselves.

أَسْرِعُوا بِالْجَنَازَةِ فَإِنْ كَانَتْ صَالِحَةً قَرَّبْتُمُوهَا إِلَى الْخَيْرِ وَإِنْ كَانَتْ غَيْرَ ذَلِكَ كَانَ شَرًّا تَضَعُونَهُ عَنْ رِقَابِكُمْ ‏"
