عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ السَّاعِدِيِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ امْرَأَةً أَتَتْ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ بِبُرْدَةٍ مَنْسُوجَةٍ فِيهَا حَاشِيَتَاهَا قَالَ سَهْلٌ وَهَلْ تَدْرُونَ مَا الْبُرْدَةُ قَالُوا نَعَمْ هِيَ الشَّمْلَةُ قَالَ نَعَمْ فَقَالَتْ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ نَسَجْتُ هَذِهِ بِيَدَيَّ فَجِئْتُ بِهَا لِأَكْسُوَكَهَا فَأَخَذَهَا النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا فَخَرَجَ عَلَيْنَا وَإِنَّهَا لَإِزَارُهُ فَجَسَّهَا فُلَانُ بْنُ فُلَانٍ رَجُلٌ سَمَّاهُ فَقَالَ مَا أَحْسَنَ هَذِهِ الْبُرْدَةَ اكْسُنِيهَا يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ ”نَعَمْ“ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ طَوَاهَا وَأَرْسَلَ بِهَا إِلَيْهِ فَقَالَ لَهُ الْقَوْمُ وَاللَّهِ مَا أَحْسَنْتَ كُسِيَهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُحْتَاجًا إِلَيْهَا ثُمَّ سَأَلْتَهُ إِيَّاهَا وَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ أَنَّهُ لَا يَرُدُّ سَائِلًا فَقَالَ وَاللَّهِ إِنِّي مَا سَأَلْتُهُ لِأَلْبَسَهَا وَلَكِنْ سَأَلْتُهُ إِيَّاهَا لِتَكُونَ كَفَنِي يَوْمَ أَمُوتُ قَالَ سَهْلٌ فَكَانَتْ كَفَنَهُ يَوْمَ مَاتَ
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) that a woman brought a woven bordered sheet to the service of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Sayyiduna Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) asked his companions, “Do you know what a ‘burdah’ is?” They replied, “Yes, it is called a sheet.” He said, “Yes, that is correct.” She said, “O Messenger of Allah! I have woven this sheet with my own hands and have brought it so that I may present it to you for your wearing.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) liked it and accepted it, then he wore it and came to us. Sayyiduna Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) mentioned a man by name who touched the sheet and said, “How excellent this sheet is! O Messenger of Allah! Please give it to me.” The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said, “Alright.” Then the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) went inside, folded the sheet, and sent it to him. The people said to him, “By Allah! You did not do a good thing. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was given this sheet to wear, and he liked it, but you asked him for it, while you know that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) does not turn away any petitioner empty-handed.” He said, “By Allah! I did not ask for this sheet to wear it. I only asked for it so that when I die, it will be my shroud.” Sayyiduna Sahl (may Allah be pleased with him) says: When he died, that sheet was made his shroud.
Brief Explanation
Benefits: … The garment that the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam was wearing, and which he himself needed, he also gave away in the path of Allah upon someone’s request.
