Arabic hadith text
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ يَحْيَى، حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحَاقَ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أُسَامَةَ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، قَالَخَرَجَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَعُودُ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أُبَىٍّ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ فَلَمَّا دَخَلَ عَلَيْهِ عَرَفَ فِيهِ الْمَوْتَ قَالَ " قَدْ كُنْتُ أَنْهَاكَ عَنْ حُبِّ يَهُودَ " . قَالَ فَقَدْ أَبْغَضَهُمْ أَسْعَدُ بْنُ زُرَارَةَ فَمَهْ فَلَمَّا مَاتَ أَتَاهُ ابْنُهُ فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ إِنَّ عَبْدَ اللَّهِ بْنَ أُبَىٍّ قَدْ مَاتَ فَأَعْطِنِي قَمِيصَكَ أُكَفِّنْهُ فِيهِ . فَنَزَعَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَمِيصَهُ فَأَعْطَاهُ إِيَّاهُ
Translation
Narrated Usamah b. Zaid
The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) went out to visit 'Abdullah bin Ubayy during his illness in which he died. When he entered upon him, he perceived death upon him, and said: "I used to forbid you from loving the Jews." He ('Abdullah) replied: "As'ad bin Zurarah hated them, so what?" When he died, his son came to him and said: "O Messenger of Allah, 'Abdullah bin Ubayy has died, so give me your shirt that I may shroud him in it." The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) took off his shirt and gave it to him.
