Showing Respect for the Deceased

SUMMARY: It is important to show respect for the deceased by standing up when a funeral procession passes by and not sitting down until it is put in the grave.

It was narrated from Abu Sa'eed that the Messenger of Allah said: "When a funeral passes by you, stand up, and whoever follows it, let him not sit down until it is put down (in the grave)".
أَخْبَرَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ دُرُسْتَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ يَحْيَى، أَنَّ أَبَا سَلَمَةَ، حَدَّثَهُ عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ‏ "‏ إِذَا مَرَّتْ بِكُمْ جَنَازَةٌ فَقُومُوا فَمَنْ تَبِعَهَا فَلاَ يَقْعُدْ حَتَّى تُوضَعَ
