قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الرَّبِيعِ، حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ، عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ الشَّامِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي غَالِبٍ، عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ ؓ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ ﷺ قَالَ:
مَنْ غَسَّلَ مَيِّتًا وَكَتَمَ عَلَيْهِ طَهَّرَهُ اللهُ تَعَالَى مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ، فَإِنْ كَفَّنَهُ كَسَاهُ اللهُ - عَزَّ وَجَلَّ - مِنَ السُّنْدُسِ
