Sunan an-Nasai 1925 (Book 21, Hadith 108) #16536
Standing Up for Funerals

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the importance of standing up for a funeral procession, as demonstrated by Al-Hasan bin 'Ali and Ibn 'Abbas.

It was narrated that Ibn Sirin said: "A funeral passed by Al-Hasan bin 'Ali and Ibn 'Abbas. Al-Hasan stood up but Ibn 'Abbas did not. Al-Hasan said to Ibn 'Abbas: 'Didn't the Messengr of Allah stand up for it?' Ibn 'Abbas said: 'He stood up for it then he sat"'.
أَخْبَرَنَا يَعْقُوبُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا مَنْصُورٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، قَالَ مُرَّ بِجَنَازَةٍ عَلَى الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَامَ الْحَسَنُ وَلَمْ يَقُمِ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ فَقَالَ الْحَسَنُ لاِبْنِ عَبَّاسٍ أَمَا قَامَ لَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ قَامَ لَهَا ثُمَّ قَعَدَ

QUICK LESSONS:
Showing respect to those who have passed away by standing up when their funeral passes by us

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith highlights the importance of showing respect to those who have passed away. It was narrated that Ibn Sirin said that a funeral procession passed by Al-Hasan bin 'Ali and Ibn 'Abbas. Al-Hasan stood up out of respect, but Ibn 'Abbas did not. When asked why he didn't stand, he replied that the Messenger of Allah stood up for it then sat down again. This shows us how important it is to show respect to those who have passed away by standing up when their funeral passes by us. We should also remember that we should not be too quick to judge others if they do not follow our example in this regard; everyone has their own way of showing respect and we should accept this without judgement or criticism.
