📖 1 min readعن أنس رضي الله عنه مرفوعاً: «يَتْبَعُ الميتَ ثلاثةٌ: أهْلُه ومَالُه وعَمَلُه، فيرجع اثنان ويَبْقى واحد: يرجع أهْلُه ومَالُه، ويبقى عَمَلُه».
Anas (may Allah be pleased with him) reported that the Prophet (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The dead person is followed by three: His family, his wealth and his deeds. Then two of them return: His family and his wealth, and there remain only his deeds."
When someone dies, his funeral attenders follow him - his family follows him to his grave, and his wealth follow him - his slaves and servants that he owns; and his deeds follow him. Then two return; his family and property, whereas his deeds remain with him. If they are good deeds, then he will find goodness; if they are evil deeds, then he will find evil.
