حديث جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللهِ، قَالَ: مَرَّتْ بِنَا جَنَازَةٌ، فَقَامَ لَهَا النَّبِيُّ ﷺ، وَقُمْنَا بِهِ، فَقُلْنَا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّهَا جَنَازَةُ يَهُودِيٍّ، قَالَ: إِذَا رأَيْتُمُ الْجِنَازَةَ فَقُومُوا.
Narrated Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh رضي الله عنهما : A funeral procession passed in front of us and the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم stood up and we too stood up. We said, "O Allâh's Messenger! This is the funeral procession of a Jew." He said, “Whenever you see a funeral procession, you should stand up.” [1] ( Sahîh Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 398, Vol. 2 )
[1] This order was cancelled by the latest action of the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم according to the Hadîth narrated by ‘Ali رضي الله عنه in Sahîh Muslim (Fath Al-Bâri, page 424, Vol. 3) .
