Sunan Ibn Majah 1578 (Book 6, Hadith 146) #30930
Attending Funerals Without Purpose

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) warned women against attending funerals without a purpose, as it would lead to them being burdened with sin and not rewarded.

It was narrated that 'Ali said: "The Messenger of Allah went out and saw some women sitting, and he said: 'What are you sitting here for?’ They said: 'We are waiting for the funeral.’ He said: 'Are you going to wash the deceased?’ They said: 'No.’ He said: 'Are you going to lower him into the grave?’ They said: 'No.’ He said: 'Then go back with a burden of sin and not rewarded.’"
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُصَفَّى الْحِمْصِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْرَائِيلُ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ بْنِ سَلْمَانَ، عَنْ دِينَارٍ أَبِي عُمَرَ، عَنِ ابْنِ الْحَنَفِيَّةِ، عَنْ عَلِيٍّ، قَالَ خَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ ـ فَإِذَا نِسْوَةٌ جُلُوسٌ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ مَا يُجْلِسُكُنَّ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَ نَنْتَظِرُ الْجِنَازَةَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ هَلْ تَغْسِلْنَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ هَلْ تَحْمِلْنَ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ هَلْ تُدْلِينَ فِيمَنْ يُدْلِي ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قُلْنَ لاَ ‏.‏ قَالَ ‏"‏ فَارْجِعْنَ مَأْزُورَاتٍ غَيْرَ مَأْجُورَاتٍ
