The Case of One Who Dies in the State of al-’Ihram

3ـ مُحَمَّدٌ عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنِ ابْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ أَبِي مَرْيَمَ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ السَّلاَم) قَالَ تُوُفِّيَ عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ بِالأَبْوَاءِ وَهُوَ مُحْرِمٌ وَمَعَهُ الْحَسَنُ وَالْحُسَيْنُ وَعَبْدُ الله بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ وَعَبْدُ الله وَعُبَيْدُ الله ابْنَا الْعَبَّاسِ فَكَفَّنُوهُ وَخَمَّرُوا وَجْهَهُ وَرَأْسَهُ وَلَمْ يُحَنِّطُوهُ وَقَالَ هَكَذَا فِي كِتَابِ عَلِيٍّ ع.
3. Muhammad has narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad, from ibn Faddal from Yunus from Ya’qub from abu Maryam who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said that ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn al-Hassan ibn Ali عليه السلام, died in al-Abwa’ (name of a place) in the state of Ihram. With him there were al-Hassan, al- Husayn, ‘Abd Allah ibn Ja‘far, ‘Abd Allah and ‘Ubayd Allah sons of al-‘Abbas. They provided him shroud and covered his face and head, but did not use Hunut (rubbing camphor over the seven parts of the body which one places on the ground for Sajdah (prostration)) saying, ‘This is how it is written in the book of Ali عليه السلام.’”
