Chapter on Guiding the Dying, Positioning Them at Death, Procedures for Their Final Moments, Washing Them, and Placing Them in Shrouds
وَ أَخْبَرَنِي اَلشَّيْخُ أَيَّدَهُ اَللَّهُ تَعَالَى عَنْ أَبِي اَلْقَاسِمِ جَعْفَرِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ عِدَّةٍ مِنْ أَصْحَابِنَا عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ زِيَادٍ عَنِ اِبْنِ مَحْبُوبٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اَلْعَزِيزِ اَلْعَبْدِيِّ عَنِ اِبْنِ أَبِي يَعْفُورٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «لاَ يَنْبَغِي لِأَحَدٍ أَنْ يَدْخُلَ اَلْقَبْرَ فِي نَعْلَيْنِ وَ لاَ خُفَّيْنِ وَ لاَ رِدَاءٍ وَ لاَ قَلَنْسُوَةٍ».
The Shaykh (Al-Mufid), may Allah سبحانه وتعالى support him, narrated to me from Abu al-Qasim Ja‘far ibn Muhammad, from Muhammad ibn Ya‘qub, from a group of our companions, from Sahl ibn Ziyad, from Ibn Mahbub, from ‘Abd al-‘Aziz al-‘Abdi, from Ibn Abi Ya‘fur, from Abu ‘Abdullah عليه السلام:
Imam عليه السلام said: "It is not appropriate for anyone to enter the grave wearing sandals, boots, a cloak, or a cap."
