English translation

1469. It was narrated from 'Aishah that the Prophet ﷺ was shrouded in three white Yemeni clothes, among which there was no shirt and no turban. It was said to 'Aishah: "They used to claim that he was shrouded in Hibarah." 'Aishah said: "They brought a Hibarah Burd,[1] but they did not shroud him in it." (Sahih)

Arabic text

1469 - حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا حَفْصُ بْنُ غِيَاثٍ، عَنْ هِشَامِ بْنِ عُرْوَةَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ عَائِشَةَ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، «كُفِّنَ فِي ثَلَاثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ بِيضٍ يَمَانِيَةٍ، لَيْسَ فِيهَا قَمِيصٌ وَلَا عِمَامَةٌ» فَقِيلَ لِعَائِشَةَ: إِنَّهُمْ كَانُوا يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّهُ قَدْ كَانَ كُفِّنَ فِي حِبَرَةٍ، فَقَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: قَدْ جَاءُوا بِبُرْدِ حِبَرَةٍ، فَلَمْ يُكَفِّنُوهُ

Commentary

It is better to use white shrouds, as it will be mentioned in Hadith: 1473. Colored and striped clothes are also allowed for shrouds. If this was not permissible, then the Prophet ﷺ would never have been shrouded with such garments by his Companions.
