English translation
4047. Narrated Khabbāb bin Al-Aratt رضي الله عنه: We emigrated in the company of Allāh's Messenger ﷺ, seeking Allāh's Pleasure. So our reward became due and sure with Allāh. Some of us have been dead without enjoying anything of their rewards (in this life), and one of them was Muṣ'ab bin 'Umayr who was martyred on the day (of the battle) of Uḥud, and did not leave anything except a Namira (i.e., a sheet in which he was shrouded). If we covered his head with it, his feet became bare, and if we covered his feet with it, his head became bare. So the Prophet ﷺ said to us, "Cover his head with it and put some Idhkhīr (i.e., a kind of grass) over his feet" or said, "throw Idhkhīr over his feet." But some amongst us have got the fruits of their labour ripened, and they are collecting them.
