ahmad:14146Muḥammad b. Bakr > Ibn Jurayj > Sulaymān b. Mūsá Suʾil Jābir > al-Kafan Faʾakhbar

[Machine] That the Prophet ﷺ once delivered a sermon and mentioned a man who passed away and was wrapped in a simple shroud, so he mentioned a similar incident.  

أحمد:١٤١٤٦حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَكْرٍ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ قَالَ سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى سُئِلَ جَابِرٌ عَنِ الْكَفَنِ فَأَخْبَرَ

أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ ﷺ خَطَبَ يَوْمًا فَذَكَرَ رَجُلًا قُبِضَ فَكُفِّنَ فِي كَفَنٍ غَيْرِ طَائِلٍ فَذَكَرَ مِثْلَهُ
