Majma al-Zawaid 4070 — Preparing the deceased, washing

وَعَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ خَدِيجٍ ، وَكَانَتْ لَهُ صُحْبَةٌ قَالَ : مَنْ غَسَّلَ مَيِّتًا وَكَفَّنَهُ وَتَبِعَهُ وَوَلِيَ جُثَّتَهُ رَجَعَ مَغْفُورًا لَهُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَفِيهِ صَالِحٌ أَبُو حُجَيْرٍ ، وَهُوَ مَجْهُولٌ .
Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah bin Hudayj (may Allah be pleased with him), who had the honour of being a Companion, says: Whoever washes a deceased person, shrouds him, goes with the funeral and takes charge of his body, by the time he returns he has been forgiven.
Ahmad recorded it. Its chain contains a narrator, Salih Abu Hujayr, and he is majhul (unknown).
