Narrated Hisham's father:Aisha said, "I went to Abu Bakr (during his fatal illness) and he asked me, 'In how many garments was the Prophet (ﷺ) shrouded?' She replied, 'In three Suhuliya pieces of white cloth of cotton, and there was neither a shirt nor a turban among them.' Abu Bakr further asked her, 'On which day did the Prophet die?' She replied, 'He died on Monday.' He asked, 'What is today?' She replied, 'Today is Monday.' He added, 'I hope I shall die sometime between this morning and tonight.' Then he looked at a garment that he was wearing during his illness and it had some stains of saffron. Then he said, 'Wash this garment of mine and add two more garments and shroud me in them.' I said, 'This is worn out.' He said, 'A living person has more right to wear new clothes than a dead one; the shroud is only for the body's pus.' He did not die till it was the night of Tuesday and was buried before the morning

حدثنا معلى بن اسد، حدثنا وهيب، عن هشام، عن ابيه، عن عايشة رضى الله عنها قالت دخلت على ابي بكر رضى الله عنه فقال في كم كفنتم النبي صلى الله عليه وسلم قالت في ثلاثة اثواب بيض سحولية، ليس فيها قميص ولا عمامة. وقال لها في اى يوم توفي رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قالت يوم الاثنين. قال فاى يوم هذا قالت يوم الاثنين. قال ارجو فيما بيني وبين الليل. فنظر الى ثوب عليه كان يمرض فيه، به ردع من زعفران فقال اغسلوا ثوبي هذا، وزيدوا عليه ثوبين فكفنوني فيها. قلت ان هذا خلق. قال ان الحى احق بالجديد من الميت، انما هو للمهلة. فلم يتوف حتى امسى من ليلة الثلاثاء ودفن قبل ان يصبح
