"Visiting the grave yard and reflecting on death helps soften the heart and put things in perspective Ibn Umar reported: A man said, “O Messenger of Allah(God), which of the believers is best?” The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Those with the best character.” The man said, “Which of the believers is the wisest?” The Prophet Muhammad said, “Those who remember death often and have best prepared for it with good deeds; those are the wisest.” Source: Sunan Ibn Mājah 4259, classified as authentic."
