2858. It was narrated that Ibn
‘Abbâs said: “While a man was standing in ‘Arafat with the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ, he fell from his mount and it killed him. The Messenger of Allâh ﷺ said: ‘Wash him with water and lotus leaves, and shroud him in two cloths. Do not apply aromatics to him or cover his head, for Allâh, the Mighty and Sublime, will raise him on the Day of Resurrection reciting the Talbiyah.”’ (Sahîh)
