وحَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ حُجْرٍ السَّعْدِيُّ ، أَخْبَرَنَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ مُسْهِرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا هِشَامُ بْنُ عُرْوَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ ، قَالَتْ : " أُدْرِجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي حُلَّةٍ يَمَنِيَّةٍ ، كَانَتْ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، ثُمَّ نُزِعَتْ عَنْهُ وَكُفِّنَ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ سُحُولٍ يَمَانِيَةٍ ، لَيْسَ فِيهَا عِمَامَةٌ وَلَا قَمِيصٌ " ، فَرَفَعَ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ الْحُلَّةَ ، فَقَالَ : أُكَفَّنُ فِيهَا ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : لَمْ يُكَفَّنْ فِيهَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأُكَفَّنُ فِيهَا ! فَتَصَدَّقَ بِهَا " ،
'A'isha reported that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was wrapped in a Yamani wrapper which belonged to 'Abdullah b Abu Bakr; then it was removed from him, and he was shrouded in three cotton sheets of white Yamani stuff from Sahul among which was neither a shirt nor a turban. 'Abdullah took up the Hullah and said: I would be shrouded in it, but then said: How is it that I should be shrouded in it in which the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) was not shrouded! So he gave it in charity.
