Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was shrouded in three white garments that were Suhuli and made of cotton (kursuf), among which there was neither a shirt nor a turban. As for the hullah, the people became confused about it, because that hullah had been bought for his (peace and blessings be upon him) shroud, but it was left aside. Abdullah bin Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with them both) took it and said: I will keep it for myself so that I may be shrouded in it. Then he said: Had Allah Almighty been pleased with it for His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), he (peace and blessings be upon him) would surely have been shrouded in it. So he sold it and gave its price in charity.
