Hadith.441 - Ali ibn Ja'far asked his brother Imam Musa ibn Jafar Al-Kadhim (as) about a man who has been devoured by a wild animal or birds, leaving only his bones without flesh. He asked what should be done in such a case. Imam (as) replied: "He should be washed, shrouded, funeral prayers should be offered for him, and he should be buried”.
441 - وَ سَأَلَ عَلِيُّ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ أَخَاهُ مُوسَى بْنَ جَعْفَرٍ عَلَيْهِمَا اَلسَّلاَمُ عَنِ اَلرَّجُلِ يَأْكُلُهُ اَلسَّبُعُ أَوِ اَلطَّيْرُ فَتَبْقَى عِظَامُهُ بِغَيْرِ لَحْمٍ كَيْفَ يُصْنَعُ بِهِ قَالَ
«يُغَسَّلُ وَ يُكَفَّنُ وَ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهِ وَ يُدْفَنُ.
