Sahih Muslim 960b (Book 11, Hadith 101) #9371
Showing Respect for the Deceased

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ showed respect and compassion for the deceased by standing until the bier disappeared.

Ibn Juraij told me that Abu Zubair heard Jabir say that the Prophet kept standing for a bier until it disappeared.
وَحَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رَافِعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو الزُّبَيْرِ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ جَابِرًا، يَقُولُ قَامَ النَّبِيُّ لِجَنَازَةٍ مَرَّتْ بِهِ حَتَّى تَوَارَتْ

This shows us how important it is to show respect to those who have passed away, even if we did not know them personally. The Prophet's example of standing in honor of someone he did not know teaches us that we should always show respect to those who have died, no matter what their background or beliefs were.
