عَنْهُ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ جَعْفَرَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ أَخِيهِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ مَهْزِيَارَ عَنْ فَضَالَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ سِنَانٍ، وَفَضَالَةَ عَنْ أَبَانَ جَمِيعًا عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: الْبُرْدُ لَا يُلَفُّ بِهِ، وَلَكِنْ يُطْرَحُ عَلَيْهِ طَرْحًا، فَإِذَا أُدْخِلَ الْقَبْرَ وُضِعَ تَحْتَ جَنْبِهِ.
From him, from Abdullah ibn Ja'far, from Ibrahim ibn Mahziyar, from his brother Ali ibn Mahziyar, from Fadalah, from Ibn Sinan, and Fadalah from Aban, all from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, who said:
Imam عليه السلام said: "The cloak (burd) is not to be wrapped around the deceased, but rather it is to be placed over him as a covering. When he is lowered into the grave, it should be placed under his side."
