Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كُفِّنَ فِي ثَلاَثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ بِيضٍ سُحُولِيَّةٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا قَمِيصٌ وَلاَ عِمَامَةٌ .
Translation
Qutaybah narrated to us, from Malik, from Hisham ibn ‘Urwah, from his father, from ‘A’ishah: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was shrouded in three white Suhuli garments, without a shirt or turban.
Translation notes
Suhuliyyah is retained as a garment designation in the source.
أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم كُفِّنَ فِي ثَلاَثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ بِيضٍ سُحُولِيَّةٍ لَيْسَ فِيهَا قَمِيصٌ وَلاَ عِمَامَةٌ .
The English witness omits the source’s explicit statement that the shroud included neither a shirt nor a turban.
Can the English witness be expanded to include the details stated in Arabic?
