I went and washed it, but some traces of saffron still remained on me. Nevertheless, I came again and greeted the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) with salam. He (peace and blessings be upon him) neither replied to my salam nor said "welcome," but rather said: "Wash it off." So I went and washed it off, then came again to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and greeted him with salam. This time, he (peace and blessings be upon him) replied to my salam and said "welcome," and said: "The angels neither attend the funeral of a disbeliever, nor do they come near a person who is covered in saffron, nor do they come near a person in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah)."

I realized that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked it, so I left from there and went to my family, they had lit the oven, I wrapped that sheet and threw it into the oven. Then I came to the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: What happened to that sheet? I said: I came to know of your dislike, so I went to my family, they had lit the oven, I threw that sheet into it. The Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: You should have made someone from your family wear it. Then the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) descended the valley of Idhkhir and led us in prayer, there was a wall in front, which was taken as a sutrah, a goat or lamb came and started passing in front of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) kept moving closer to the wall to avoid it, until I saw the blessed stomach of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), it touched the wall and the animal passed behind the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him).
