It is narrated from Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that when Hazrat Siddiq Akbar (may Allah be pleased with him) began to feel heavy in illness, he asked, "What day is it today?" We told him it was Monday. He asked, "On which day did the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) pass away?" We told him, "On Monday." He said, "Then I also hope for the same tonight." He asked, "In what was the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) shrouded?" We told him, "In three white Yemeni Sahuli sheets, in which there was neither a shirt nor a turban." She says that there was a cloth on the body of Hazrat Siddiq Akbar (may Allah be pleased with him) which had stains of ochre color. He said, "When I die, wash this cloth of mine and, along with two new clothes, shroud me in three clothes." We said, "Why don't we take all new clothes?" He said, "No, these are only for a short while." And Hazrat Abdullah bin Abi Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) gave him a striped Yemeni sheet, in which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was wrapped. Then the people took out that sheet and shrouded the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) in three sheets. Abdullah took his sheet back and said, "I will include this sheet in my shroud, which touched the body of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." But after some time, he thought, "I will not include in my shroud that which Allah did not allow to be included in the shroud of His Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)." Anyway! He passed away on the night of Tuesday, and he was buried the same night. Similarly, when Hazrat Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) passed away, Hazrat Abdullah bin Zubair buried her at night as well.
