Allah’s Apostle shrouded every two martyrs of Uhud in one piece of cloth and then he would ask,

the grave. He said, “I am a witness on these.” Then he ordered them to be buried with blood on their
bodies. Neither did he offer their funeral prayer nor did he get them washed. (Jabir bin Abdullah ad –
ded): Allah’s Apostle used to ask about the martyrs of Uhud as to which of them knew more of the
Quran.” And when one of them was pointed out as having more of it he would put him first in the
grave and then his companions. (Jabir added): My father and my uncle were shrouded in one sheet.

Volume 2, Book 23, Number 433:
Narrated Jabir bin ‘Abdullah:
Allah’s Apostle came to Abdullah bin Ubai (a hypocrite) after his death and he has been laid in his
pit (grave). He ordered (that he be taken out of the grave) and he was taken out. Then he placed him
on his knees and threw some of his saliva on him and clothed him in his (the Prophet’s) own shirt.
Allah knows better (why he did so). ‘Abdullah bin Ubai had given his shirt to Al-Abbas to wear. Abu
Harun said, “Allah’s Apostle at that time had two shirts and the son of ‘Abdullah bin Ubai said to him,
‘O Allah’s Apostle! Clothe my father in your shirt which has been in contact with your skin.’ ‘ Sufyan
added, “Thus people think that the Prophet clothed ‘Abdullah bin Tubal in his shirt in lieu of what he
(Abdullah) had done (for Al Abbas, the Prophet’s uncle.)”

gave his order and he was shifted away. At that time he heard the voice of a crying woman and
asked, “Who is this?” They said, “It is the daughter or the sister of Amr.” He said, “Why does she weep?
(or let her stop weeping), for the angels had been shading him with their wings till he (i.e. the body
of the martyr) was shifted away.”
