عن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه قال‏:‏ قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏:‏ “من شهد الجنازة حتي يصلى عليها، فله قيراط ، ومن شهدها حتي تدفن، فله قيراطان‏"‏ قيل‏:‏ وما القيراطان‏؟‏ قال‏:‏ “مثل الجبلين العظيمين” ‏(‏‏(‏متفق عليه‏)‏‏)‏ ‏.‏

The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "Whoever follows the funeral procession and offers the funeral prayer for it, will get a reward equal to one Qirat, and whoever attends it till burial, will get a reward equal to two Qirat.'' It was asked, "What are two Qirat?'' He (ﷺ) replied, "Equal to two huge mountains." [Al-Bukhari and Muslim].
