1932. It was narrated from Abû
Qatâdah bin Rib'î that he used to narrate: "A funeral passed by the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ and he said: 'He is relieved and others are relieved of him.' They said: 'What does relieved mean and what does relieved of him mean? He said: 'The believing slave is relieved of the hardships and troubles of this world, and the people, the land, the trees and the animals are relieved of the immoral slave.'" (Sahîh)

Commentary
1. "A believing slave": means a person who is Allâh-conscious, who does not harm people, or tyrannize fellow creatures.
2. "An evil-doer" denotes not only a disbeliever but it includes those people also who tyrannize others, harm fellow creatures and animals, and destroy habitations. Beside all these, they pay no heed to the rights of Allâh.
