1040. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Whoever performs the funeral prayer then he will get a reward equal to a Qirāt. Whoever follows it until it is buried then he will get a reward equal to two Qirāt, one of them, or the least of them, is similar to Uḥud (mountain)." This was mentioned to Ibn 'Umar, so he sent a message to 'Aishah to ask her about that, and she said: "Abū Hurairah has told the truth." So Ibn 'Umar said: "We have missed many Qirāt." (Hasan)
He said: There are narrations on this topic from Al-Barā', 'Abdullāh bin Mughaffal, 'Abdullāh bin Mas'ūd, Abu Sa'eed, Ubayy bin Ka'b, Ibn 'Umar, and Thawbān.
Abū 'Eisā said: The Hadīth of Abū Hurairah is a Hasan Ṣaḥīḥ Hadīth, and it has been reported from him through more than one route.

Commentary
It comes to the light in this narration, that sometimes elite Companions were also unaware of some important narrations, and they consulted 'Aishah for clarification and confirmation.
