Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Ibn Abi Mulaykah narrates that after the killing of Hazrat Abdullah bin Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him), I went to Hazrat Asma (may Allah be pleased with her). She said, "I have heard that people have crucified Abdullah upside down, and along with him, they have also hung a cat. By Allah, I wish that before my death, his body is given to me so that I may wash him, apply fragrance, shroud him, and bury him." Shortly after, a letter from Abdul Malik arrived stating that his body should be handed over to his family. Thus, he was brought to Hazrat Asma, and she washed him, applied fragrance, shrouded him, and buried him.
