وعن مرثد بن عبد الله اليزني قال‏:‏ كان مالك بن هبيرة رضي الله عنه إذا صلى علي الجنازة ، فتقال الناس عليها، جزأهم عليها ثلاثة أجزاء، ثم قال‏:‏ قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏:‏ “من صلى عليه ثلاثة صفوف، فقد أوجب “ ‏(‏‏(‏رواه أبو دواد، والترمذي وقال‏:‏ حديث حسن‏)‏‏)‏‏.‏

When Malik bin Hubairah (May Allah be pleased with him) offered a funeral prayer and found a small number of participants, he would divide them into three rows and would say that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "If three rows of men offer funeral prayer over anyone, his entry into Jannah will become certain." [Abu Dawud and At- Tirmidhi].
