1942. It was narrated that Al Musayyab bin Râfi' said: "I heard Al-Barâ' bin 'Âzib say: The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: 'whoever follows a Janâzah until the prayer is offered, he will have one Qirât of reward and whoever walks with the funeral until (the body) is buried will have two Qirâts of reward, and a Qirât is like Uhud.'" (Sahih)
1940 - أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا عَبْثَرٌ، عَنْ بُرْدٍ، أَخِي يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي زِيَادٍ، عَنْ الْمُسَيَّبِ بْنِ رَافِعٍ، قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ الْبَرَاءَ بْنَ عَازِبٍ يَقُولُ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ تَبِعَ جَنَازَةً حَتَّى يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ قِيرَاطٌ، وَمَنْ مَشَى مَعَ الْجَنَازَةِ حَتَّى تُدْفَنَ كَانَ لَهُ مِنَ الْأَجْرِ قِيرَاطَانِ، وَالْقِيرَاطُ مِثْلُ أُحُدٍ»

"Each Qirât being equivalent to Uhud": the reason for this specification was that the popular weight of a Qirât happens to be very insignificant. (The Qirât is a small weight, a twentieth or twenty-fourth of a Dinar - a gold coin).
