Hadith #48855
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ قَالَ: مَرُّوا بِجَنَازَةٍ فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا خَيْرًا. فَقَالَ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «وَجَبَتْ» ثُمَّ مَرُّوا بِأُخْرَى فَأَثْنَوْا عَلَيْهَا شَرًّا. فَقَالَ: «وَجَبَتْ» فَقَالَ عُمَرُ: مَا وَجَبَتْ؟ فَقَالَ: «هَذَا أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ خَيْرًا فَوَجَبَتْ لَهُ الْجَنَّةُ وَهَذَا أَثْنَيْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ شَرًّا فَوَجَبَتْ لَهُ النَّارُ أَنْتُم شُهَدَاء الله فِي الأَرْض» . وَفِي رِوَايَةٍ: «الْمُؤْمِنُونَ شُهَدَاءُ اللَّهِ فِي الْأَرْضِ»
On the authority of Anas, he said: They passed by a funeral and praised it well. Then the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said: “It is obligatory.” Then they passed by another and they praised it evilly. He said: “It is obligatory.” Omar said: What is it obligatory? He said: “This is the one whom you praised well, and Paradise was guaranteed for him, and this you praised. evil befalls him, and the Fire becomes necessary for him. You are God’s witnesses on earth.” And in a narration: “The believers are God’s witnesses on earth.”
