ما قالوا في الميت كم يغسل مرة؟ وما يجعل في الماء مما يغسل به؟How Many Times Should the Deceased Be Washed, and What Should Be Added to the Water?
Hadith 11227
١١٢٢٧ - حدثنا إسماعيل بن علية عن يونس عن الحسن عن (عتي) (١) عن أبي قال: لما ثقل آدم أمر بنيه أن (يجذوا) (٢) (من) (٣) تمار الجنة (فجاؤوا) (٤) (فتلقتهم) (٥) الملائكة (فقالوا) (٦): ارجعوا فقد أمر (اللَّه) (٧) بقبض أبيكم، فرجعوا معهم فقبضوا روحه، وجاءوا معهم بكفنه وحنطوه وقالوا لبنيه: (احضروا) (٨) (فاغسلوه ⦗٤٦٢⦘ وكفنوه) (٩) وحنطوه وصلوا عليه، (وقالوا) (١٠): يا بني آدم هذه (سنة) (١١) (بينكم) (١٢) (١٣).
It is narrated from Hazrat Abi that when the last moments of Hazrat Adam approached, he instructed his sons to bring him fruits from Paradise. So they set out, and when they met the angels, the angels said, "Return, for Allah Almighty has commanded the soul of your father to be taken." The angels returned with them, took his soul, and brought with them a shroud and fragrance. They said to his sons, "Attend to him, give him a bath, shroud him, apply fragrance, and offer prayer over him." Then it was said, "O children of Adam! This is the tradition of your father."
