 ~ Narrated Anas (Allah be pleased with him ) ~ 

A funeral procession passed in front of the Prophet [Sal Allahu Alleihi Wasallam]

 and the people praised the deceased {!}

 The Prophet [Sal Allahu Allaihi Wasallam]said...

 " It has been affirmed Paradise " {!}    Then another funeral procession passed by and  

  the people talked badly of the deceased... The Prophet [Sal Allahu Alleihi Wasallam]said...

 " It has been affirmed Hell ". The Prophet [Sal Allahu Allaihi Wasallam]

was asked... "O Allah's Apostle [Sal Allahu Alla ihi Wasallam]

 " You said what has been affirmed for both " ... ? 

The Prophet [Sal Allahu Allaihi Wasallam] answered...

  " The Testimony of the people is accepted for the Believers are  ALLAH'S  witnesses on the Earth".

Commentary:

 The remarks of true believers reflect their righteousness and integrity of character.

 If they bear witness to the purity of heart of a man, he is sure to go to 'Jannah'. 

And if they comment on the evil-mindedness of somebody, he is likely to be consigned to Hell-fire. Indeed, a believer never utters anything out of malice or self-conceit. 

There are some Ahadith which forbid us to speak ill of dead people. 

This rule applies to the true believers only. The Shari`ah argument is against it. 

However, we are allowed to talk about the misdeeds of the infidels and people who commit sins openly, disregarding the Shari`ah so that others may abstain from  imitating a bad example. { In Shaa Allah }

Say, 'Indeed, my Prayer, my Rites of Sacrifice,

my Living and my Dying are for ALLAH, Lord of the Worlds'.

{'Quran'~Surat Al-'An`am -# 6-162.}

'Subhanak Allaahuma WaBihamdika Ash-hadu an laa illaaha illa anta Astaghfiruka wa atubu ilayk.'

  If I said anything correct, then it is from ALLAH 

{AZZA WA JALL } and if I erred, then that is from me and shaytan.
