Sahih Muslim Hadith 771 – Taking Care To

English

[771] 76 – (340) Jâbir bin 'Abdullâh said: "When the Ka'bah was built, the Prophet and 'Abbás went to move a stone. Al-'Abbãs said to the Prophet : 'Put your Izâr (lower garment) up on your shoulders to protect them from the stone.' He did that, then he fell to the ground. His eyes lifted up towards heaven (i.e., he became unconscious), then he got up and said: 'My Izâr, my Izâr!' and his Izâr was tied around him." Ibn RâfI' said in his report: "On your neck;" he did not say, "on your shoulders," (this happened when the Messenger of Allah was in his childhood.)
