The Meaning of the Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas: When One of You Dies, Make His Shroud Good and Expedite the Fulfillment of His Bequest

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q 2: Regarding Ibn 'Abbas from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), who said:
When one of you dies, make his shroud good and expedite the fulfillment of his bequest, and dig his grave deep and keep him away from a bad neighbor. It was said: O Messenger of Allah, does a good neighbor benefit in the Hereafter? He said: Does he benefit in this world? They said: Yes. He said: So it is that he benefits in the Hereafter.إذا مات لأحدكم ميت فحسنوا كفنه وعجلوا بإنجاز وصيته، واعمقوا له في قبره وجنبوه جار السوء، قيل: يا رسول الله وهل ينفع الجار الصالح في الآخرة؟ قال: هل ينفع في الدنيا؟ قالوا: نعم، قال: كذلك ينفع في الآخرة
So, should righteous people be chosen for the deceased to be buried with and to be in his company?

A 2 : The Muslim deceased is buried in the Muslim cemeteries, and it is not permissible to bury him with the disbelievers. The aforementioned hadith was mentioned by al-Suyuti in (Al-La'ali al-Masnu'ah fi al-Ahadith al-Mawdu'ah), meaning the fabricated ones attributed to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) (Vol. 2, p. 439). And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
