Narrated Umm Salamah: When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ entered upon Abu Salamah; his eyes were fixedly open. So he closed them. The members of his family cried. He said: Do not pray for yourself anything but good; for the angels utter Amin to what you say. He then said: O Allah; forgive Abu Salamah; raise his rank among those who are guided; and grant him a succession in his descendants who remain. Forgive both us and him; Lord of the universe. O Allah;make his grave spacious for him; and grant him light in it.Abu Dawud said: The eyes of the deceased should be closed after his expiry. I heard Muhammad Bin AlNuman AlMuqri say: I heard a man who was devoted to Allah say: I closed the eyes of Jafar AlMuallim when he was dying. He was a man devoted to Allah. I saw him in a dream on the night he died. He said: The biggest thing for me was closing the eyes by you before I died.
