Hadith.494 - The Prophet, said: "The best place in the funeral prayer is the last row." COMPEV فتأخرن إلى الصف الأخير فبقي فضله على ما ذكره عليه السلام. وإذا دعي الرجل إلى وليمة وإلى جنازة أجاب إلى الجنازة لأنها تذكر أمر الآخرة، ويدع الوليمة لأنها تذكر الدنيا. Therefore, people should move back to the last row, as its merit remains as the Prophet (as) described. Furthermore, if a man is invited to both a feast (walimah) and a funeral, he should attend the funeral, as it reminds him of the hereafter, and leave the feast, as it reminds him of worldly matters.
494 - فَقَالَ اَلنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ: «أَفْضَلُ اَلْمَوَاضِعِ فِي اَلصَّلاَةِ عَلَى اَلْمَيِّتِ اَلصَّفُّ اَلْأَخِيرُ.
