English translation

2876. It was reported from Khabbāb who said: "Muṣ'ab bin 'Umayr was killed on the Day of Uhud, and he had nothing but a Namirah. When we covered his head with it his legs were exposed, and when we covered his legs with it his head was exposed. So the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Cover his head with it, and put some Idhkhīr over his legs." (Sahīh)

Arabic text

2876 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ كَثِيرٍ، أَخْبَرَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي وَائِلٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابٍ قَالَ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ: قُتِلَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ وَلَمْ تَكُنْ لَهُ إِلَّا نَمِرَةٌ كُنَّا إِذَا غَطَّيْنَا بِهَا رَأْسَهُ خَرَجَتْ رِجْلَاهُ، وَإِذَا غَطَّيْنَا رِجْلَيْهِ خَرَجَ رَأْسُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «غَطُّوا بِهَا رَأْسَهُ، وَاجْعَلُوا عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ مِنَ الإِذْخِرِ»
