Abu Burdah narrates: When the last moments of Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) approached, he instructed: When you carry my funeral, carry it quickly and do not take fire with it, and do not place anything on my grave that would come between me and the soil, and do not build any structure over my grave, and I make you all witnesses that I disassociate myself from the woman who shaves her head, the woman who wails loudly, and (the woman who tears her clothes). People asked: Have you heard anything about this? He replied: Yes, I have heard it from the tongue of the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

Safwan bin Mahraz narrates: When the last moments of Sayyiduna Abu Musa Ash'ari (may Allah be pleased with him) approached and people began to wail loudly over him, he said: The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "He is not from among us who wails and cries loudly (at the time of calamity), who tears (his collar), and who shaves his head."
