Burial of the Uhud martyrs
The Messenger of God looked over the martyrs and said: 'I am witness over these.' He ordered that anyone who had carried a slain man back to Medina return him, and that they be buried where they fell, in their clothes, the iron and leather removed, unwashed; two or three were laid in one grave, the one who had taken most of the Qur'an placed first. Abdullah ibn Amr ibn Haram (may God be pleased with him) and Amr ibn al-Jamuh (may God be pleased with him) were buried together for the love between them. They looked for Hanzala and found him dripping water; the Prophet ﷺ said the angels were washing him, and he was called the angels' washed. Among the martyrs they found Mus'ab ibn Umayr, for whom no shroud was found but a striped cloak 1.
