Jabir bin Abdullah reported: My father fell as a martyr on the Day of Uhud and I attempted to uncover his face and weep, but they (the Companions of the Holy Prophet) forbade me to do this, whereas Allahs Messenger ﷺ did not forbid me and Fatima bint Amr, the sister of my father, was also weeping There- upon Allahs Messenger ﷺ said: You may weep or you may not weep; the Angels provide him shade with the help of their wings until you lift him (to be buried in the grave).
