حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ:‏‏‏‏ إِذَا حَضَرْتُمُ الْمَيِّتَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَقُولُوا خَيْرًا، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ يُؤَمِّنُونَ عَلَى مَا تَقُولُونَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏فَلَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏قُلْتُ:‏‏‏‏ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏مَا أَقُولُ ؟ قَالَ:‏‏‏‏ قُولِي:‏‏‏‏ اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَهُ، ‏‏‏‏‏‏وَأَعْقِبْنَا عُقْبَى صَالِحَةً . قَالَتْ:‏‏‏‏ فَأَعْقَبَنِي اللَّهُ تَعَالَى بِهِ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ.

Narrated Umm Salamah رضی اللہ عنہا : The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم: When you attend dying man, you should say good words, for the angels say Amin to what you say. When Abu Salamah رضی اللہ عنہ died, I said: What should I say, Messenger of Allah? He said: O Allah forgive him, and give us something good in exchange. She said: So Allah gave me Muhammad صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم in exchange for him.
