Sunan Ibn Majah 1539 (Book 6, Hadith 107) #30891
Rewards of Funeral Prayers

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ taught that those who offer the funeral prayer will be rewarded with one Qirat, and those who wait until the burial is finished will be rewarded with two Qirat.

It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet said: "Whoever offers the funeral prayer will have one Qirat and whoever awaits until (the burial) is finished will have two Qirat". They said: 'What are these two Qirat?’ He said: 'Like two mountains.’"
حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الأَعْلَى، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيَّبِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ـ ـ قَالَ ‏"‏ مَنْ صَلَّى عَلَى جِنَازَةٍ فَلَهُ قِيرَاطٌ وَمَنِ انْتَظَرَ حَتَّى يُفْرَغَ مِنْهَا فَلَهُ قِيرَاطَانِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالُوا وَمَا الْقِيرَاطَانِ قَالَ ‏"‏ مِثْلُ الْجَبَلَيْنِ
