"The Messenger of Allah came to Hamza on the Day of Uhud, he stood over him and saw that he had been mutilated. He said: Had it not been that Safiyyah would be distressed, then I would have left him to be eaten by the beasts until he was gathered on the Day of Judgment from their stomachs." He said: "Then he called for a Namirah to shroud him with. When it was extended over his head, it left his feet exposed, and when it was extended over his feet, it left his head exposed." He said: "There were many dead and few cloths." He said: "One, two and three men were shrouded in one cloth and buried in one grave." He said: "So the Messenger of Allah was asking which of them knew the most Quran, so he could put him toward the Qibalh." He said: "So the Messenger of Allah buried them and he did not perform (funeral prayers) for them." (Using translation from Tirmidhī 1016)   

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَتَى عَلَى حَمْزَةَ فَوَقَفَ عَلَيْهِ فَرَآهُ قَدْ مُثِّلَ بِهِ فَقَالَ لَوْلَا أَنْ تَجِدَ صَفِيَّةُ فِي نَفْسِهَا لَتَرَكْتُهُ حَتَّى تَأْكُلَهُ الْعَافِيَةُ وَقَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ تَأْكُلَهُ الْعَاهَةُ حَتَّى يُحْشَرَ مِنْ بُطُونِهَا ثُمَّ قَالَ دَعَا بِنَمِرَةٍ فَكَفَّنَهُ فِيهَا قَالَ وَكَانَتْ إِذَا مُدَّتْ عَلَى رَأْسِهِ بَدَتْ قَدَمَاهُ وَإِذَا مُدَّتْ عَلَى قَدَمَيْهِ بَدَا رَأْسُهُ قَالَ فَكَثُرَ الْقَتْلَى وَقَلَّتِ الثِّيَابُ قَالَ فَكَانَيُكَفَّنُ أَوْ يُكَفِّنُ الرَّجُلَيْنِ شَكَّ صَفْوَانُ وَالثَّلَاثَةَ فِي الثَّوْبِ الْوَاحِدِ قَالَ وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ يَسْأَلُ عَنْ أَكْثَرِهِمْ قُرْآنًا فَيُقَدِّمُهُ إِلَى الْقِبْلَةِ قَالَ فَدَفَنَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ وَلَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمْ وَقَالَ زَيْدُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ فَكَانَ الرَّجُلُ وَالرَّجُلَانِ وَالثَّلَاثَةُ يُكَفَّنُونَ فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ
