Chapter on Touching the Deceased

وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «كَتَبَ أَبِي عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ فِي وَصِيَّتِهِ أَنْ أُكَفِّنَهُ فِي ثَلاَثَةِ أَثْوَابٍ أَحَدُهَا بُرْدٌ لَهُ حِبَرَةٌ كَانَ يُصَلِّي فِيهِ يَوْمَ اَلْجُمُعَةِ وَ ثَوْبٌ آخَرُ وَ قَمِيصٌ.
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "My father عليه السلام wrote in his will that I should shroud him in three garments: one of them being a Yemeni cloth (hibarah) that he used to wear for Jumu’ah prayers, along with another cloth and a shirt (Qamis)."
