Ways of The Prophet (S.A.W)

Ghusl (bath) after washing a corpse.

Hadrat Abu Hurairah (Radi Allahu Ta’ala Anhu) narrated that the Messenger (Sallallahu Alaihi Wa Sallam) of ALLAH said, “Whoever washes a corpse should (afterwards) take a bath himself.” [lbn Majah]

In the traditions it has been reported that the persons carrying the bier on their shoulders should perform ablution (first). [Maarif -ul- Hadis]
