Sayyidina Khabbab (RA) narrated: We made hijrah (migrated to Madinah) with the Prophet (SAW) seeking Allah’s countenance. So, our reward was with Allah. There were those of us who died before receiving reward (in the world) and there were others who survived to reap the fruit thereof. Mus’ab ibn Umayr (RA), “ died leaving behind nothing but a garment such that if his head was covered with it, his feet became bare and if it was stretched over his feet, his head was exposed. So, Allah’s Messenger said, “Cover his head and put izkhir on his feet.” (Izkhir is lemon grass).
[Ahmed 21134, Bukhari 1276, Muslim 940, Abu Dawud 3155, Nisai 1899]
