كَيْفَ غُسْلُ الْمَيِّتِ

حَدَّثَنَا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ مَالِكٍ. ح وحَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ الْمَعْنَى، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ سِيرِينَ، عَنْ أُمِّ عَطِيَّةَ، قَالَتْ: دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ حِينَ تُوُفِّيَتِ ابْنَتُهُ، فَقَالَ: اغْسِلْنَهَا ثَلَاثًا، أَوْ خَمْسًا، أَوْ أَكْثَرَ مِنْ ذَلِكَ إِنْ رَأَيْتُنَّ ذَلِكَ، بِمَاءٍ وَسِدْرٍ، وَاجْعَلْنَ فِي الْآخِرَةِ كَافُورًا، أَوْ شَيْئًا مِنْ كَافُورٍ، فَإِذَا فَرَغْتُنَّ، فَآذِنَّنِي، فَلَمَّا فَرَغْنَا آذَنَّاهُ، فَأَعْطَانَا حَقْوَهُ، فَقَالَ: أَشْعِرْنَهَا إِيَّاهُ . قَالَ عَنْ مَالِكٍ: يَعْنِي إِزَارَهُ، وَلَمْ يَقُلْ مُسَدَّدٌ دَخَلَ عَلَيْنَا.

How The Deceased Is To Be Washed

The Messenger of Allah صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم came in when his daughter died, and he said: Wash her with water and lotus leaves three or five times or more than that if you think fit, and put camphor, or some camphor in the last washing, then inform me when you finish. When we had finished we informed him, and he threw us his lower garment saying: Put it next to her body. Malik's version has: that is, his lower garment (izar); and Musaddad did not say: He entered in.
