أخبرنا قتيبة، قال حدثنا سفيان، عن عبد الله بن أبي بكر، قال سمعت أنس بن مالك، يقول قال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ يتبع الميت ثلاثة أهله وماله وعمله فيرجع اثنان أهله وماله ويبقى واحد عمله ‏"‏ ‏.‏
 It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Abi Bakr said:                     "I heard Anas bin Malik say: The Messenger of Allah said: 'The dead person is followed by three: His family, his wealth and his deeds. Then two of them come back: His family and his wealth, and there remain only his deeds."'
