[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came down, he woke up and threw a garment on his face. When he became alert, he uncovered his face and said, while doing so: "May Allah curse the Jews and Christians; they took the graves of their prophets as mosques." He warned his nation against what they did. This hadith was narrated by Al-Zuhri from Sa'id bin Al-Musayyib from Abu Hurayrah.

أَنَّهُ لَمَّا نَزَلَ بِرَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ طَفِقَ يَطْرَحُ خَمِيصَةً عَلَى وَجْهِهِ فَإِذَا اغْتَمَّ كَشَفَهَا عَنْ وَجْهِهِ فَقَالَ وَهُوَ يَفْعَلُ ذَلِكَ «لَعْنَةُ اللهِ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى اتَّخَذُوا قُبُورَ أَنْبِيَائِهِمْ مَسَاجِدَ» حَذَرًا عَلَى أُمَّتِهِ مَا صَنَعُوا وَقَدْ رَوَى هَذَا الْحَدِيثَ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ الْمُسَيِّبِ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ

When the last moment of the life of Messenger of Allah ﷺ came he started putting his 'Khamisa' on his face and when he felt hot and short of breath he took it off his face and said, "May Allah curse the Jews and Christians for they built the places of worship at the graves of their Prophets." The Prophet ﷺ was warning (Muslims) of what those had done.

On his death-bed Messenger of Allah ﷺ put a sheet over his-face and when he felt hot, he would remove it from his face. When in that state (of putting and removing the sheet) he said, "May Allah's Curse be on the Jews and the Christians for they build places of worship at the graves of their prophets." (By that) he intended to warn (the Muslim) from what they (i.e. Jews and Christians) had done.

ʿAisha and ʿAbdullah bin ʿAbbas said, "When Messenger of Allah ﷺ became ill seriously, he started covering his face with his woolen sheet, and when he felt short of breath, he removed it from his face and said, 'That is so! Allah's curse be on the Jews and the Christians, as they took the graves of their prophets as (places of worship),' intending to warn (the Muslims) of what they had done."

When the disease of Messenger of Allah ﷺ got aggravated, he covered his face with a Khamisa, but when he became short of breath, he would remove it from his face and say, "It is like that! May Allah curse the Jews Christians because they took the graves of their prophets as places of worship." By that he warned his follower of imitating them, by doing that which they did.

As the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was about to breathe his last, he drew his sheet upon his face and when he felt uneasy, he uncovered his face and said in that very state: Let there be curse upon the Jews and the Christians that they have taken the graves of their apostles as places of worship. He in fact warned (his men) against what they (the Jews and the Christians) did.

"When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was on his deathbed, he had a Khamisah over his face. When his temperature rose, he would uncover his face. When his temperature rose, he would uncover his face. While he was like that he said: 'May Allah curse the Jews and Christians, for they took the graves of their Prophets as places of worship.'"

[Machine] When the Messenger of Allah ﷺ came down, he found a cloth covering his face, so he removed it from his face and said, "May the curse of Allah be upon the Jews and Christians for they have taken the graves of their prophets as places of worship." He warned them against doing the same.
