مِنْ حَدِيثِ خَبَّابِ بْنِ الْأَرَتِّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُFrom the hadith of Khabbab ibn al-Aratt (may Allah be pleased with him)
Hadith 27214
اُردوEn
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ إِدْرِيسَ ، قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ الْأَعْمَشَ يَرْوِي ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ ، قَالَ : هَاجَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَمِنَّا مَنْ مَاتَ ، وَلَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئًا ، مِنْهُمْ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ ، لَمْ يَتْرُكْ إِلَّا نَمِرَةً ، إِذَا غَطَّوْا بِهَا رَأْسَهُ بَدَتْ رِجْلَاهُ ، وَإِذَا غَطَّيْنَا رِجْلَْهِ ، بَدَا رَأْسُهُ ، فَقَالَ لَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " غَطُّوا رَأْسَهُ " , وَجَعَلْنَا عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ إِذْخِرًا ، قَالَ : وَمِنَّا مَنْ أَيْنَعَ الثِّمَارَ ، فَهُوَ يَهْدِبُهَا.
It is narrated from Hazrat Khabbab (may Allah be pleased with him) that we migrated with the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) solely for the pleasure of Allah, therefore our reward became due upon Allah. Now, some of us have departed from this world and did not partake of any of their reward, among them was Hazrat Mus'ab bin Umair (may Allah be pleased with him), who was martyred at the time of the Battle of Uhud, and we could not find anything to shroud him with except a single sheet; if we covered his head, his feet would remain uncovered, and if we covered his feet, his head would remain uncovered. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) instructed us to cover his head and to place a kind of grass called 'izkhir' on his feet. And some among us are those whose fruits have ripened and they are gathering them.
