The dead of Uhud could not get proper shrouds because in those days Muslims were poor and lacked money. Mus 'ab bin 'Umair had only a sheet of cloth over his body; if the head was covered, the feet were bare and when the feet were covered the head was left bare. At last his head was covered and the feet were covered with grass. Such was the shroud of Mus 'ab bin 'Umair (Allah be pleased with him) - the great martyr of the Muslim nation.

Mus`ab ibn `Umair (RA)is my favourite sahaba..interesting personality.Something about his Burial..Then Muhammed addressed the dead body thus:"When I saw you for the first time in Mecca there was nobody more handsome and well-dressed than you. But, I see that today your hair is uncombed and only a sheet of clothe covers your body !"
