2012 - أَخْبَرَنَا إِسْمَعِيلُ بْنُ مَسْعُودٍ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ وَهُوَ ابْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ أَبِي جَمْرَةَ، عَنْ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ: «جُعِلَ تَحْتَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ دُفِنَ قَطِيفَةٌ حَمْرَاءُ»

Commentary
This outer wrapping garment or mantle (Qatifah) remained with the Prophet ﷺ in use. One of his freed slaves Shaqrân thought it is appropriate that this garment should not fall into the hands of others for use. He, therefore, spread it additionally beneath the sacred body of the Prophet ﷺ without telling other Companions.
