Umar replied: Ask Ali. Ka'b then asked: Where is he? Umar said: He is here. So he asked him, and Ali replied: I supported him against my chest, and he rested his head on my shoulder, saying: Prayer, prayer. Ka'b said: Thus was the last trust of the prophets, with which they were commanded and upon which they will be raised. Ka'b then asked: Who washed him, O Commander of the Faithful? Umar replied: Ask Ali. So he asked him, and Ali said: I was the one who washed him, while Abbas was sitting there, and Usamah and Shuqrān were coming to me with water.

Then the condition of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny) worsened, and he became heavy in my lap. I shouted, 'O Abbas, help me, for I am perishing!' So Abbas came, and both of their efforts together were only able to lay him down.

He said that a fragrant breeze arose, unlike anything they had ever experienced before. Al-Abbas then said to Ali: "Leave your grieving, like a woman's grieving, and turn to your companion." Ali replied: "Enter to the one in your care." The Ansar said: "We beseech you by Allah for our share of the Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him and his holy progeny)."

Ali washed him, placing his hand under the shirt, and al-Fadl held the cloth over him while the Ansari poured water. On Ali's hand was a cloth that he guided into the shirt, which rested on it.
