Zujajat al-Masabih 2098Volume 1

English

Abu Sa'id (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: "When the funeral bier is placed and the men carry it on their shoulders, if the deceased was righteous, it will say, 'Take me forward,' and if they were not righteous, it will say to its people, 'Woe to it! Where are they taking it?' Everything hears its voice except humans, and if they heard it, they would faint."
