Hadith 430
۞
Hadith.431 - Sama’a ibn Mehran asked Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) about a man who dies and is only accompanied by women.
Imam (as) replied: "A woman who is his mahram (close relative) should wash him, and the other women should pour water over him without removing his clothes. If it is a woman who dies among men, with no women or mahram present, She should be buried as She is in her clothing. If a mahram is present, he may wash her from over her clothes."
431 - وَ سَأَلَهُ سَمَاعَةُ بْنُ مِهْرَانَ: عَنْ رَجُلٍ مَاتَ وَ لَيْسَ مَعَهُ إِلاَّ نِسَاءٌ فَقَالَ
«تُغَسِّلُهُ اِمْرَأَةٌ ذَاتُ مَحْرَمٍ مِنْهُ وَ تَصُبُّ اَلنِّسَاءُ عَلَيْهِ اَلْمَاءَ وَ لاَ تَخْلَعُ ثَوْبَهُ وَ إِنْ كَانَتِ اِمْرَأَةٌ مَاتَتْ مَعَ رِجَالٍ وَ لَيْسَ مَعَهُمُ اِمْرَأَةٌ وَ لاَ مَحْرَمٌ لَهَا فَلْتُدْفَنْ كَمَا هِيَ فِي ثِيَابِهَا وَ إِنْ كَانَ مَعَهَا ذُو مَحْرَمٍ لَهَا غَسَّلَهَا مِنْ فَوْقِ ثِيَابِهَا.
