It is narrated from Sayyiduna Khabbab (may Allah be pleased with him) that for the shroud of Sayyiduna Hamza (may Allah be pleased with him), only a striped sheet could be found, and that (too was so short) that if it was placed over his head, his feet would be uncovered, and if it was placed over his feet, his head would be uncovered. In the end, the sheet was placed over his head and grass (izkhir) was put over his feet.
