سَهْلُ بْنُ زِيَادٍ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ يَعْقُوبَ عَنْ أَبِي اَلْحَسَنِ اَلْأَوَّلِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ سَمِعْتُهُ يَقُولُ:« أَنَا كَفَّنْتُ أَبِي فِي ثَوْبَيْنِ شَطَوِيَّيْنِ كَانَ يُحْرِمُ فِيهِمَا وَ فِي قَمِيصٍ مِنْ قُمُصِهِ وَ فِي عِمَامَةٍ كَانَتْ لِعَلِيِّ بْنِ اَلْحُسَيْنِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ وَ فِي بُرْدٍ اِشْتَرَيْتُهُ بِأَرْبَعِينَ دِينَاراً لَوْ كَانَ اَلْيَوْمَ لَسَاوَى أَرْبَعَمِائَةِ دِينَارٍ».
Sahl ibn Ziyad narrated from Muhammad ibn Amr ibn Sa'id from Yunus ibn Ya'qub from Abu al-Hasan al-Awwal (the First) عليه السلام, who said:
I heard Imam عليه السلام say: “I shrouded my father (Imam Ja’far Al Sadiq عليه السلام) in two garments from Shatawiyyah, in which he used to wear the ihram, and in a shirt from his shirts, and in a turban that belonged to (Imam) Ali ibn al-Husayn عليه السلام, and in a cloak which I purchased for forty dinars. If it were (purchased) today, it would have been worth four hundred dinars.
