The Reciter: Chapter: The Agonies of Death. Muhammad ibn 'Ubayd ibn Maymun narrated to us, 'Isa ibn Yunus narrated to us from 'Umar ibn Sa'id, who said: Ibn Abi Mulaikah informed me that Abu 'Amr Dhakwan, the freed slave of 'Aishah, informed him that 'Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) used to say: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a leather water-skin or a wooden box in front of him containing water. 'Umar was uncertain about which it was. He would put his hands in the water and wipe his face with them, saying:
None has the right to be worshipped but Allah! No doubt, death has its stupors. لا إله إلا الله إن للموت سكرات
Sahih al-Bukhari 6510
Then he raised his hand and kept saying:
The highest companion في الرفيق الأعلى
until he passed away and his hand fell. Abu 'Abdullah said: "The box is made of wood, and the water-skin is made of leather"

The Shaykh : Yes. The water-skin is made of leather, meaning from hide, and wood is well known.
