Chapter on Burial of the Deceased

Zujajat al-Masabih 2178Volume 1

English

Amr ibn Al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) said to his son while he was on his deathbed: "When I die, do not let any wailing woman or fire accompany me. When you bury me, throw the soil over me firmly, then stay around my grave for the time it takes to slaughter a camel and distribute its meat, so that I may find comfort in your presence and know how to respond to the messengers of my Lord."
