Hadith 943
۞
14. Sahl ibn Ziyad has narrated from Muhammad ibn Ali from Isma’il ibn Yasar from ‘Amr ibn Yazid who has said the following
“Abu ’Abd Allah (a.s.), has said that if forty people take part in the funeral of a person and say the following: ‘O Allah, we do not know anything about him. All we know is good deeds,’ Allah, the Most Majestic, the Most Glorious, will say, ‘I accept your testimony and forgive him for things that he did but you had no knowledge of.’”
14ـ سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ يَسَارٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ يَزِيدَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ
إِذَا حَضَرَ الْمَيِّتَ أَرْبَعُونَ رَجُلاً فَقَالُوا اللهمَّ إِنَّا لاَ نَعْلَمُ مِنْهُ إِلاَّ خَيْراً قَالَ الله عَزَّ وَجَلَّ قَدْ قَبِلْتُ شَهَادَتَكُمْ وَغَفَرْتُ لَهُ مَا عَلِمْتُ مِمَّا لاَ تَعْلَمُونَ.
