Sunan an-Nasa'i 1899

Translation

the Messenger of Allah was shrouded in three white Yemeni garments of cotton, among which was no shirt and no turban. It was mentioned to 'Aishah that they said: "He was buried in two garments and a Burd made of Hibrah." She said: "A Burd was brought, but they sent it back and did not shroud him in it."

Notes

• فَذُكِرَ لِعَائِشَةَ قَوْلُهُمْ فِي ثَوْبَيْنِ وَبُرْدٍ مِنْ حِبَرَةٍ فَقَالَتْ قَدْ أُتِيَ بِالْبُرْدِ وَلَكِنَّهُمْ رَدُّوهُ وَلَمْ يُكَفِّنُوهُ فِيهِ

  رواه هشام بن عروة واختلف عنه في متنه فرواه الدراوردي عن هشام عن أبيه عن عائشة أن النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم كفن في ثلاثة أثواب سحولية ولحد له ونصب عليه اللبن نصبا وخالفه جماعة من أصحاب هشام منهم الثوري وأبو ضمرة وعبيد الله بن عمرو الرقي وشعيب بن إسحاق وعبد الله بن نمير وعمر بن علي وأبو معاوية وزمعة بن صالح عن هشام ولم يذكروا فيه اللحد ولا اللبن تفرد بذلك الدراوردي عن هشام ورواه مكحول عن عروة عن عائشة ولم يذكر فيه أيضا اللحد ولا اللبن وهو المحفوظ عن هشام بن عروة

  machine translationHishām b. ʿUrwah narrated it, and there is disagreement about him regarding its text (matn). Al-Darāwardī narrated it from Hishām, from his father, from ʿĀʾishah: that the Prophet ﷺ was shrouded in three Saḥūlī garments, and a niche-grave (laḥd) was dug for him and mud bricks were set up over him. A group of Hishām's students contradicted him, among them al-Thawrī, Abū Ḍamrah, ʿUbaydullāh b. ʿAmr al-Raqqī, Shuʿayb b. Isḥāq, ʿAbdullāh b. Numayr, ʿUmar b. ʿAlī, Abū Muʿāwiyah and Zamʿah b. Ṣāliḥ, from Hishām; they did not mention in it the niche-grave or the mud bricks. Al-Darāwardī alone related that from Hishām. Makḥūl also narrated it from ʿUrwah, from ʿĀʾishah, and he too did not mention in it the niche-grave or the mud bricks. That is the preserved (maḥfūẓ) version from Hishām b. ʿUrwah. Report a problem
