Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ زُرَيْعٍ - قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي جَمْرَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ : جُعِلَ تَحْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حِينَ دُفِنَ قَطِيفَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ .
Translation
Isma‘il ibn Mas‘ud informed us, from Yazid—namely, Ibn Zuray‘—who said: Shu‘bah narrated to us, from Abu Jamrah, from Ibn ‘Abbas, who said: When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was buried, a red qatifah (velvet-like cloth) was placed beneath him.
