1851 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا خَالِدٌ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، عَنْ مُطَرِّفٍ، عَنْ حَكِيمِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، أَنَّ قَيْسَ بْنَ عَاصِمٍ، قَالَ: «لَا تَنُوحُوا عَلَيَّ، فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ لَمْ يُنَحْ عَلَيْهِ» مُخْتَصَرٌ

Commentary
"Wailing" denotes wailing loudly and describing the deceased person's qualities (whether true or false). This is forbidden, because generally in such a situation, people resort to exaggeration.
