Narrated Muhammad:Um 'Atiyya said, "One of the daughters of the Prophet (ﷺ) died and he came out and said, 'Wash her three or five times or more, if you think it necessary, with water and Sidr, and last of all put camphor (or some camphor) and when you finish, inform me.' " Um Atiyya added, "When we finished we informed him and he gave us his waist-sheet and said, 'Shroud her in it.' " And Um 'Atiyya (in another narration) added, "The Prophet (ﷺ) said, 'Wash her three, five or seven times or more, if you think it necessary.' " Hafsa said that Um 'Atiyya had also said, "We entwined her hair into three braids

Muhammad bataate hain: Um Atiya ne kaha: "Nabi ki betiyon mein se ek ka intiqal hua aur Aap bahar aakar farmaya: 'Isse teen ya paanch baar, ya usse zyada agar zaroori samjho, paani aur Sidr se dhoo lo, aur aakhir mein kafoor (ya thoda kafoor) lagao, aur jab khatam kar lo, mujhe bataana.'" Um Atiya ne joda: "Jab humne khatam kiya, humne unhe bataya aur Aap ne humein apna Izar diya aur kaha: 'Isme kafan do.'" Aur Um Atiya ne (ek doosri riwayat mein) joda: "Nabi ne farmaya: 'Isse teen, paanch ya saat baar, ya usse zyada agar zaroori samjho, dhoo lo.'" Hafsa ne bataya ke Um Atiya ne yeh bhi kaha: "Humne unke baal teen lediyon mein baant diye."
