English Translation
Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with him) narrated: When Hamzah ibn Abd al-Muttalib was killed, he had a striped garment (namirah). Ali was the one who placed him in his grave. When he covered his head with it, his feet would show, and when he covered his feet, his head would appear. He asked the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) about it, and he ordered him to cover his head and to take some branches of the iljan tree and place them on his legs.
