It is narrated from Sayyidah Asma bint Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with her) that she said (while making her final bequest before her death): "When I die, wash me, shroud me, apply hanut (the special perfume for the deceased) to me, and perfume my shroud with incense (of aloeswood or frankincense); but do not sprinkle (additional dry) perfume on my shroud, and do not follow me (when the bier is carried) with a censer."
Imam Abd al-Razzaq recorded this same narration through Ma'mar from Hisham bin Urwah with these words: She ordered that her garments be perfumed with incense over a censer, but that a censer not be carried behind the funeral; and Sayyidah Asma (may Allah be pleased with her) also left the bequest: "Do not put perfume on my bier (that is, the bed or coffin)."
