Hadith 11687

عَنْ خَبَّابٍ بْنِ الْأَرَتِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ هَاجَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَبْتَغِي وَجْهَ اللَّهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَوَجَبَ أَجْرُنَا عَلَى اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ فَمِنَّا مَنْ مَضَى لَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئًا مِنْهُمْ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ قُتِلَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فَلَمْ نَجِدْ شَيْئًا نُكَفِّنُهُ فِيهِ إِلَّا نَمِرَةً كُنَّا إِذَا غَطَّيْنَا بِهَا رَأْسَهُ خَرَجَتْ رِجْلَاهُ وَإِذَا غَطَّيْنَا رِجْلَيْهِ خَرَجَ رَأْسُهُ فَأَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَنْ نُغَطِّيَ بِهَا رَأْسَهُ وَنَجْعَلَ عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ إِذْخِرًا وَمِنَّا مَنْ أَيْنَعَتْ لَهُ ثَمَرَتُهُ فَهُوَ يَهْدِي بِهَا يَعْنِي يَجْتَنِيهَا
Sayyiduna Khabbab bin Al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him) says: We migrated with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) for the pleasure of Allah Almighty, so our reward became assured with Allah (as He has promised). Then among us were some who departed to Allah without having consumed the reward of their deeds; among them was Sayyiduna Mus'ab bin Umair (may Allah be pleased with him), who was martyred on the day of Uhud. For his shroud, we could find only one sheet, and it was so short that when we covered his head, his feet became uncovered, and when we covered his feet, his head became uncovered. Eventually, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) ordered us to cover his head and to place idhkhir (a type of grass) on his feet. While among us are also those whose fruit has ripened and now he is gathering it.
