Mishkat al-Masabih #500

Purification

The Arabic includes the chain of narration (sanad) and the collector's commentary; the English translation shows the Prophet's words only.

وَعَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «مَنْ غَسَّلَ مَيِّتًا فَلْيَغْتَسِلْ» . رَوَاهُ ابْنُ مَاجَهْ وَزَادَ أَحْمَدُ وَالتِّرْمِذِيُّ وَأَبُو دَاوُدَ: «وَمَنْ حمله فَليَتَوَضَّأ»
Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, “Anyone who has washed a dead body must bathe himself.” Ibn Majah transmitted it; and Ahmad, Tirmidhi and Abu Dawud added, “And he who carries it must perform ablution.”
