1826. It was narrated that Umm Salamah said: "I heard the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ say: 'When you see the dead, say something good, for the angels say Āmīn to whatever you say.' When Abū Salamah died, I said: 'O Messenger of Allāh, what should I say?' He said: 'Say: Allāhummaghfirlanaā wa lahu wa a 'qibnī minhu 'uqbāi ḥasanah (O Allāh, forgive us and him, and compensate me well for this loss.)'" Then Allāh, the Mighty and Sublime, compensated me with Muḥammad ﷺ." (Ṣaḥīḥ)
1825 - قَالَ أَبُو عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ: «مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَالِدُ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ» أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، عَنْ يَحْيَى، عَنْ الْأَعْمَشِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي شَقِيقٌ، عَنْ أُمِّ سَلَمَةَ قَالَتْ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «إِذَا حَضَرْتُمُ الْمَرِيضَ فَقُولُوا خَيْرًا، فَإِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ يُؤَمِّنُونَ عَلَى مَا تَقُولُونَ»، فَلَمَّا مَاتَ أَبُو سَلَمَةَ، قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ، كَيْفَ أَقُولُ؟ قَالَ: «قُولِي اللَّهُمَّ اغْفِرْ لَنَا وَلَهُ، وَأَعْقِبْنِي مِنْهُ عُقْبَى حَسَنَةً»، فَأَعْقَبَنِي اللَّهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ مِنْهُ مُحَمَّدًا صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ

Special angels arrive at the person whose death is imminent or near, who pronounce Āmīn; meaning if you visit the place of a deceased, you should not bewail the dead or lament in a raised voice as a display of grief, nor curse you own selves. Rather you should supplicate for the deceased's well-being.
