[Machine] Abu Dhar had with him a group of people. He said, "Indeed, I have experienced everything that you see of death, and if I had a garment that could shroud me or my companion, I would not be shrouded in anything other than that. And I swear to you, none of you should shroud me, whether he is a noble, a chief, a prince, or a messenger." The people were of high rank, among them was Hudhur and Malik Al-Ishtaru, and in this group there was a man from the Ansar. Everyone in the group had reached a certain position except the Ansari man. He said, "I will shroud you in my two cloaks, which I have kept as a trust from my mother, who wove them for me until she died. Abu Dhar said, "That is enough for me." Adh-Dhahabi remained silent about this in his summarization.
