EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith, narrated by Ali bin Abu Talib, advises Muslims to be prompt in preparing for funerals. It is important to remember that the deceased should be buried as soon as possible after death and that there should be no delays in the funeral preparations. This hadith emphasizes the importance of respecting the dead and ensuring that they are given a proper burial with dignity and respect. It also serves as a reminder of how quickly life can pass away, so we must make sure to take advantage of every moment we have while we are alive. Additionally, this hadith teaches us about being mindful of our actions and how they affect others; if we delay someone's funeral unnecessarily, it can cause distress for their family members who may already be grieving their loss.
