[Machine] "And we bury a dead person, and the shroud is spread over his grave. Then the shroud is pulled from the grave, and it is said that this is done by women. Ibn Abdan informed us, and Ahmad bin Ubaid narrated to us, Ali bin al-Hasan bin Bayan al-Muqri narrated to us, Arim narrated to us, and Saq bin Hazn narrated from Ali bin al-Hakam, and he mentioned it while in the state of confusion due to the ignorance of the man from the people of Kufa."
