(35) باب كَرَاهِيَةِ الْمُغَالاَةِ فِي الْكَفَنِ
Narrated Khabbab:
Mus'ab b. 'Umari was killed on the day of Uhud. He had only a striped cloak. When we covered his head with it, his feet appeared, and when we covered his feet, his head appeared. Thereupon the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: Cover his head with it, and cover his feet with some grass. (PT)
