Hadeeth text
‘Ā’ishah (may Allah be pleased with her) reported: Abu Bakr entered upon the Messenger of Allah (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) after his death. He put his mouth between his eyes, put his hands on his temples, and said: "O my Prophet, O my close friend, O my bosom friend."
Explanation
What Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) did here is known as lamentation, which is allowable as long as the heart harbors no objection or impatience to the affliction. Also, the voice must not be loud, unlike that of the women who shriek and keen (the well-known chanting of women when they wail and lament a dead person).
