Mishkat al-Masabih #1601
Funerals
The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.
وَعَنْ أَنَسٍ أَنَّ جَنَازَةً مَرَّتْ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَقَامَ فَقِيلَ: إِنَّهَا جَنَازَةُ يَهُودِيٍّ فَقَالَ: «إِنَّمَا قُمْت للْمَلَائكَة» . رَوَاهُ النَّسَائِيّ
Anas said that when a bier came past God’s messenger and he stood up he was told that it was carrying a Jew. He replied, “I stood up simply out of respect for the angels.”
Nasa’i transmitted it.
