أَخْبَرَنَا عُبَيْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، ح وَأَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْقَطَّانُ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ الأَعْمَشَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ شَقِيقًا، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا خَبَّابٌ، قَالَ هَاجَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم نَبْتَغِي وَجْهَ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى فَوَجَبَ أَجْرُنَا عَلَى اللَّهِ فَمِنَّا مَنْ مَاتَ لَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئًا مِنْهُمْ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ قُتِلَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ فَلَمْ نَجِدْ شَيْئًا نُكَفِّنُهُ فِيهِ إِلاَّ نَمِرَةً كُنَّا إِذَا غَطَّيْنَا رَأْسَهُ خَرَجَتْ رِجْلاَهُ وَإِذَا غَطَّيْنَا بِهَا رِجْلَيْهِ خَرَجَتْ رَأْسُهُ فَأَمَرَنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ نُغَطِّيَ بِهَا رَأْسَهُ وَنَجْعَلَ عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ إِذْخِرًا وَمِنَّا مَنْ أَيْنَعَتْ لَهُ ثَمَرَتُهُ فَهُوَ يَهْدِبُهَا . وَاللَّفْظُ لإِسْمَاعِيلَ .
‘Ubayd Allah ibn Sa‘id narrated to us, saying: Yahya narrated to us, from al-A‘mash. (Another route:) Isma‘il ibn Mas‘ud narrated to us, saying: Yahya ibn Sa‘id al-Qattan narrated to us, saying: I heard al-A‘mash say: I heard Shaqiq say: Khabbab narrated to us, saying: We emigrated with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), seeking the countenance of Allah, Exalted is He, and our reward became assured with Allah. Some of us died without receiving any of their reward; among them was Mus‘ab ibn ‘Umayr, who was killed on the day of Uhud. We found nothing with which to shroud him except a namirah. When we covered his head with it, his feet showed; and when we covered his feet with it, his head showed. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) instructed us to cover his head with it and place idhkhir over his feet. Among us are those whose fruit has ripened, and they are harvesting it. This is Isma‘il’s wording.
Translation notes
Namirah is retained as the name of the cloth used as a shroud; idhkhir is retained as the name of the plant placed over the feet.
The text includes two transmission routes and specifies that the wording is Isma‘il’s.
