[2177] 44 - (940) It was narrated that Khabbāb bin Al-Aratt said: "We emigrated with the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, in Allāh's cause, seeking the Face of Allāh, and Allāh has assured us of our reward. Some of us have passed on and have not taken any of their reward, including Muṣ'ab bin 'Umayr, who was killed on the day of (the Battle of) Uḥud. We could not find anything with which to shroud him except a Namirah which,[1] if we put it on his head, his feet showed, and if we put it over his feet, his head showed. The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: 'Put it over his head, and put some Idhkhīr on his feet.' And for some of us the fruit has ripened and we are harvesting it."

Arabic text

44 - (940) وحَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى التَّمِيمِيُّ، وَأَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ، وَأَبُو كُرَيْبٍ - وَاللَّفْظُ لِيَحْيَى -، قَالَ يَحْيَى: أَخْبَرَنَا، وَقَالَ الْآخَرُونَ: حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ شَقِيقٍ، عَنْ خَبَّابِ بْنِ الْأَرَتِّ، قَالَ: هَاجَرْنَا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ، نَبْتَغِي وَجْهَ اللهِ، فَوَجَبَ أَجْرُنَا عَلَى اللهِ، فَمِنَّا مَنْ مَضَى لَمْ يَأْكُلْ مِنْ أَجْرِهِ شَيْئًا، مِنْهُمْ مُصْعَبُ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ، قُتِلَ يَوْمَ أُحُدٍ، فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ لَهُ شَيْءٌ يُكَفَّنُ فِيهِ إِلَّا نَمِرَةٌ، فَكُنَّا إِذَا وَضَعْنَاهَا عَلَى رَأْسِهِ، خَرَجَتْ رِجْلَاهُ، وَإِذَا وَضَعْنَاهَا عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ، خَرَجَ رَأْسُهُ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «ضَعُوهَا مِمَّا يَلِي رَأْسَهُ، وَاجْعَلُوا عَلَى رِجْلَيْهِ الْإِذْخِرَ»، وَمِنَّا مَنْ أَيْنَعَتْ لَهُ ثَمَرَتُهُ، فَهْوَ يَهْدِبُهَا
