Muwatta Malik #584
Burials
Yahya related to me from Malik from Muhammad ibn Amr ibn
Halhalaad-Dili from Mabad ibn Kab ibn Malik that Abu Qatada ibn Ribi
used to relate that a funeral procession passed by the Messenger of
Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and he said, "One is
relieved and another others are relieved from." They said, "Who is the
one relieved and the one from whom others are relieved?" He said, "A
slave who is mumin is the one who is relieved from the exhaustion and
suffering of this world to the mercy of Allah, and a wrong-acting
slave is the one from whom people, towns, trees and animals are
relieved."
