The answer

This phrase is part of a narrated by Muslim from Awf ibn Malik concerning the supplication for the deceased. "(Abtilhu)" means to compensate him, and "(a dwelling better than his dwelling)" refers to exchanging the world for the abode of the hereafter, and "(a family better than his family)" refers to servants, and it is possible that the general meaning of "family" is intended.
