Sa'id bin Jubayr narrates from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Cover his face but do not cover his head, nor apply perfume to him. Indeed, he will be raised on the Day of Resurrection in the state of talbiyah."
Al-Shafi'i said: It is narrated from Ibn Shihab that Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) did something similar.
