Sahih al-Bukhari 3910 (Book 64, Hadith 126)
passed away (i.e. died) without enjoying anything from their reward, and one of them was Mus`ab bin
`Umar who was killed (i.e. martyred) on the day of Uhud. He did not leave behind except a sheet of
striped woolen cloth. If we covered his head with it, his feet became naked, and if we covered his feet
with it, his head became naked. The Prophet (ﷺ) said to us, “Cover his head with it and put Idhkhir (i.e. a
kind of grass) over his feet,” or said, “Put some Idhkhir over his feet.” But some of us have got their
fruits ripened, and they are collecting them.
