Chapter 99: The Prohibition Of Applying Aromatics To The Muhrum If He Dies

باب النَّهْىِ عَنْ أَنْ يُحَنَّطَ الْمُحْرِمُ إِذَا مَاتَ ‏.‏

Sunnan an-Nasai 2855

It was narrated that Ibn Abbas said

"While a man was standing in Arafat with the Messenger of Allah , he fell from his mount and it killed him. The Messenger of Allah (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 Allah, the Might and Sublime, wil raise him on the Day of Resurrection reciting the Talbiyah.'".

أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ بَيْنَا رَجُلٌ وَاقِفٌ بِعَرَفَةَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم إِذْ وَقَعَ مِنْ رَاحِلَتِهِ فَأَقْعَصَهُ - أَوْ قَالَ فَأَقْعَصَتْهُ - فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ اغْسِلُوهُ بِمَاءٍ وَسِدْرٍ وَكَفِّنُوهُ فِي ثَوْبَيْنِ وَلاَ تُحَنِّطُوهُ وَلاَ تُخَمِّرُوا رَأْسَهُ فَإِنَّ اللَّهَ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ يَبْعَثُهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مُلَبِّيًا ‏"‏ ‏.‏
