Sayyiduna Zubair bin Al-Awwam (may Allah be pleased with him) says: On the day of Uhud, a woman was running and was about to come and see the martyrs, but the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) disliked that she should see the martyrs (in that state), so the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Woman, woman, (prevent her from coming to the martyrs)." Sayyiduna Zubair (may Allah be pleased with him) says: I recognized that she was my mother, Sayyida Safiyyah (may Allah be pleased with her), so I quickly went there and before she could reach the martyrs, I reached her. But since she was a strong woman, she struck my chest and said: "Get away, may you have no place!" But when I said that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) has ordered you to be stopped, upon hearing this, she stopped. She had two cloths with her, she took them out and said: "These are two cloths, I have brought them for my brother Hamza (may Allah be pleased with him), because I have received news of his martyrdom. Shroud him in these cloths." So we brought those two cloths to shroud Sayyiduna Hamza (may Allah be pleased with him), but suddenly we saw that beside him lay an Ansari martyr, who had also been mutilated. We felt it would be inconsiderate and unjust to shroud Sayyiduna Hamza (may Allah be pleased with him) in two cloths and not have even one cloth for the Ansari. Then we measured both cloths, and since one of them turned out to be larger, we cast lots between the two martyrs, and whichever cloth fell to whichever one, we shrouded him in it.
