It was
narrated that ‘Abdullah bin ‘Amr said:
“A man died in
Al-
Madinah, and he was one of those who were born in Al-Madinah. The
Prophet (ﷺ) offered the funeral prayer for him and said: “Would
that
he had died somewhere other than his birthplace.” A man among
the
people said: “Why, O Messenger of Allah?” He said: “If a
man dies
somewhere other than his birthplace, a space will be
measured for him
in Paradise (as big as the distance) from the place
where he was born
to the place where he died.”
