Ayyub narrates that Hazrat Abu Qalabah said to me: Conceal the body of the deceased as much as possible.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abdullah bin Harith that Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) gave Ghusl (ritual washing) to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was wearing his shirt. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) had a piece of cloth in his hand with which he was giving the Ghusl. Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) would put his hand under the shirt and give the Prophet the Ghusl, while the shirt remained on his body.

Hazrat Ja'far narrates from his father that when the Companions intended to give you (the Prophet) the ritual bath, at that time the blessed body of the Prophet (peace be upon him) was wearing a shirt. The Companions intended to remove it, but a (unseen) voice came from inside the house saying: "Do not remove the shirt."

Hazrat Dhahak says: "Do not bathe me by stripping me naked."
