Showing Respect During Funeral Processions

SUMMARY: It is important to stand up when you see a funeral procession and not sit until the coffin is put down.

Narrated Abu Sa'id Al-Khudri: The Prophet said, "When you see a funeral procession, you should stand up, and whoever accompanies it should not sit till the coffin is put down".
حَدَّثَنَا مُسْلِمٌ ـ يَعْنِي ابْنَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ـ حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامٌ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيِّ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا رَأَيْتُمُ الْجَنَازَةَ فَقُومُوا، فَمَنْ تَبِعَهَا فَلاَ يَقْعُدْ حَتَّى تُوضَعَ

Stand up when seeing a funeral procession
EXPLANATIONS:
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ taught us to show respect for those who have passed away by standing up when we see a funeral procession. We should not sit until the coffin has been put down, as this shows our respect for the deceased and their family. This hadith teaches us that we should always be respectful of those who have passed away, no matter what our relationship with them was like while they were alive. It also reminds us that death is an inevitable part of life, and it should be respected as such.
