Ayyub narrates that the daughter of Anas bin Sirin passed away, who had experienced her first menstruation. Hazrat Ibn Sirin ordered that she be shrouded in a shirt without sleeves and two sheets.

Hasan says that if a girl who has not yet reached puberty passes away, she will be shrouded in one cloth.

It is narrated from Hazrat Hisham that Hazrat Umm Humaid asked Bint Sirin: When Hazrat Hafsa was given the ritual bath, did you see how the veil was placed on her? She replied: Yes, the veil was placed on her in the same way as it is placed on a living person. Then the remaining part of the veil, about a cubit in length, was spread at the back, then that remaining part was turned and her face was covered with it.

Hasan, regarding the deceased, says that the turban should be placed in the middle of the head of the deceased, and then it should be wrapped around the body towards the back in such a way that it goes around both sides. And Hazrat Ibn Sirin states that the turban should be tied on the deceased in the same manner as it is tied on the living.

11435 - He said: And Ibn Sirin said: He is shrouded as the living is shrouded.

Ibrahim says that incense will be given to the clothes of the deceased before giving him the shroud.

Hasan says that the clothes of the deceased (the shroud) should be hung on a hanger, etc., and perfumed with incense, and Muhammad says that if they do so, it is good, and I prefer that after shrouding him, his clothes should be perfumed with incense so that its fragrance remains.

11438 - He said: And Muhammad used to see that; if they did it, it was good, and I prefer that it (be perfumed) (1) while it is on him after he (puts it on) (2), for it is (more lasting) (3) (for its scent) (4).

Hazrat Hafs states that only the clothes of the deceased will be fumigated.

Hazrat Fatimah says that when Hazrat Asma’s final time approached, she said: When I die, give me ghusl (ritual washing), then shroud me, and then perfume my clothes with incense.
