Arabic hadith text

أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْحَاقُ، قَالَ أَنْبَأَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا مَعْمَرٌ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ كُفِّنَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي ثَلاَثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ سُحُولِيَّةٍ بِيضٍ ‏.‏

Translation

Ishaq narrated to us, saying: ‘Abd al-Razzaq informed us, saying: Ma‘mar narrated to us, from al-Zuhri, from ‘Urwah, from ‘A’ishah, who said: The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was shrouded in three white Suhuli garments.

Translation notes
  • Suhuliyyah is retained as a garment designation in the source.

  • قَالَتْ كُفِّنَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي ثَلاَثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ سُحُولِيَّةٍ بِيضٍ ‏.

    The English witness corresponds to the preceding Arabic report from Samurah; this Arabic text is a separate report from ‘A’ishah about the Prophet’s shroud.

    Can the English witness be matched to this ‘A’ishah report?
