Sainte Fatima ('as) fut enterrée avec 7 morceaux de tissus, oui sept ! : "It is related that Kathir b. ‘Abdullah wrote the following on the shroud of Zahra, “She bears witness that there is no other deity worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.”

It is quoted in Misbahul Anwar that the shroud of Fatimah was coarse and thick. It is related (in the same book) that when the end of Fatimah drew near, she called for some water and took a bath, then she called for a scent and anointed herself with it. Then she called for some cloth, they brought a coarse and thick cloth and she wore it.

It is also related that she was shrouded in seven pieces of cloth."
