Hadith 36:221
Abu Mu'awiyah narrated to us, from al-A'mash, from Shaqiq, from Khabbab, who said: We migrated with the Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) seeking the Face of Allah, so our reward became incumbent upon Allah. Among us were those who passed away and did not consume anything of their reward. Among them was Mus'ab ibn Umayr, who was killed on the day of Uhud. Nothing was found to shroud him in except a striped garment; when they placed it over his head, his feet would emerge, and when they placed it over his feet, his head would emerge. The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) said: "Place it over the part that covers his head, and place some *idhkhir* (lemon grass) over his feet." And among us were those whose fruit had ripened, and he is harvesting it.
حدثنا أبو معاوية عن الأعمش عن شقيق عن خباب قال هاجرنا مع رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم نبتغي وجه الله فوجب أجرنا على الله فمنا من مضى لم يأكل من أجره شيئا منهم مصعب بن عمير قتل يوم أحد فلم يوجد له شيء يكفن فيه إلا نمرة كانوا إذا وضعوها على رأسه خرجت رجلاه وإذا وضعوها على رجليه خرج رأسه فقال رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم اجعلوهما مما يلي رأسه واجعلوا على رجليه من الاذخر ومنا من أينعت له ثمرته فهو يهدبها
