Sahih Muslim Hadith 2130 – Closing The Eyes

English

[2130] 7 – (920) It was narrated that Umm Salamah said: "The Messenger of Allah entered upon Abü Salamah and his eyes were fixed open. He closed them, then he said: 'When the soul is 4.a taken, the sight follows it.' Some of his family wailed and he said: 'Do not pray against yourselves except for good things, for the Angels say Amin to whatever you say.' Then he said: '0 Allah, forgive Abü Salamah and raise him in status among those who are guided, and take care of his family who are left behind. Forgive us and him, 0 Lord of the Worlds, and make his grave spacious for him, and illuminate it for him."
