Sahih al-Bukhari 1277

Hadith text

Narrated Sahl:A woman brought a woven Burda (sheet) having edging (border) to the Prophet, Then Sahl asked them whether they knew what is Burda, they said that Burda is a cloak and Sahl confirmed their reply. Then the woman said, "I have woven it with my own hands and I have brought it so that you may wear it." The Prophet (ﷺ) accepted it, and at that time he was in need of it. So he came out wearing it as his waist-sheet. A man praised it and said, "Will you give it to me? How nice it is!" The other people said, "You have not done the right thing as the Prophet (ﷺ) is in need of it and you have asked for it when you know that he never turns down anybody's request." The man replied, "By Allah, I have not asked for it to wear it but to make it my shroud." Later it was his shroud

Sahl (رضی اللہ عنہ) bataate hain: Ek aurat ek buni hui Burda (chadar) jisme kinaari thi, Nabi ke paas laayi. (Rawi ne, Sahl se pucha kya unhe pata hai Burda kya hoti hai, unhone haan mein jawab diya ke Burda ek chogha hoti hai, aur Sahl ne is jawab ki tasdeeq ki.) Phir aurat ne kaha: "Maine ise apne haathon se bunaa hai aur main laayi hoon taake aap ise pehnen." Nabi ne ise qubool kiya, aur us waqt Aap ko iski zaroorat thi. To Aap ise apna Izar banakar pehne hue bahar aaye. Ek shaks ne iski tareef ki aur kaha: "Kya aap mujhe yeh de sakte hain? Yeh kitni achhi hai!" Doosre logon ne kaha: "Tumne achha nahi kiya, Nabi ko iski zaroorat thi aur tumne yeh maang liya jabke tumhe pata hai Aap kabhi kisi ki darkhwast wapas nahi karte." Shaks ne jawab diya: "Allah ki qasam, maine ise pehnne ke liye nahi maanga, balki apna kafan banane ke liye." Baad mein woh usi ka kafan bana.
