23.25 To shroud one with all of one's property

٢٣۔٢٥ باب الْكَفَنِ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْمَالِ

[Machine] "And it was said by Ata, Al-Zuhri, and Amr bin Dinar, and Qatadah. And Amr bin Dinar said: Flour is better than all other forms of wealth. And Ibrahim said: One should start with the funeral shroud, then the debt, and then the will. And Sufyan said: The reward for the grave and the washing is from the funeral shroud."

وَبِهِ قَالَ عَطَاءٌ وَالزُّهْرِيُّ وَعَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ وَقَتَادَةُ. وَقَالَ عَمْرُو بْنُ دِينَارٍ الْحَنُوطُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ الْمَالِ. وَقَالَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ يُبْدَأُ بِالْكَفَنِ ثُمَّ بِالدَّيْنِ ثُمَّ بِالْوَصِيَّةِ. وَقَالَ سُفْيَانُ أَجْرُ الْقَبْرِ وَالْغَسْلِ هُوَ مِنَ الْكَفَنِ.

Once the meal of ʿAbdur-Rahman bin ʿAuf was brought in front of him, and he said, "Musʿab bin ʿUmair was martyred and he was better than I, and he had nothing except his Burd (a black square narrow dress) to be shrouded in. Hamza or another person was martyred and he was also better than I and he had nothing to be shrouded in except his Burd. No doubt, I fear that the rewards of my deeds might have been given early in this world." Then he started weeping.  

البخاري:١٢٧٤ – حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْمَكِّيُّ حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ أُتِيَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ عَوْفٍ ؓ يَوْمًا بِطَعَامِهِ فَقَالَ قُتِلَ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ وَكَانَ خَيْرًا مِنِّي فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ لَهُ مَا يُكَفَّنُ فِيهِ إِلاَّ بُرْدَةٌ وَقُتِلَ حَمْزَةُ أَوْ رَجُلٌ آخَرُ خَيْرٌ مِنِّي فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ لَهُ مَا يُكَفَّنُ فِيهِ إِلاَّ بُرْدَةٌ لَقَدْ خَشِيتُ

أَنْ يَكُونَ قَدْ عُجِّلَتْ لَنَا طَيِّبَاتُنَا فِي حَيَاتِنَا الدُّنْيَا ثُمَّ جَعَلَ يَبْكِي
