This unnamed Companion is remembered for a request that showed the Prophet ﷺ's generosity. The Prophet ﷺ had been wearing a garment full of holes, and another Companion gave him a beautiful new one, which he put on. This man then asked, "Ya Rasulullah, can you give me this garment as a gift?" The Prophet ﷺ agreed at once, went home, and came back in his old, tattered garment. The other Companions turned on the man, asking how he could ask such a thing when he knew the Prophet ﷺ never refused a request. He answered, "Before you get angry at me, I am not doing this to wear it! I want to use this as my kafan, to show the generosity of the Prophet ﷺ in front of Allah."
