Should a Muslim Perform Ghusl After Washing a Polytheist?
Hadith 11484
١١٤٨٤ - حدثنا وكيع عن سفيان عن أبي إسحاق عن ناجية (بن كعب) (١) عن علي قال: لما مات أبو طالب أتيت رسول اللَّه ﷺ فقلت: يا رسول اللَّه إن عمك الشيخ الضال (قد) (٢) مات قال: فقال: "انطلق فواره ثم لا تُحْدِثَنَّ شيئًا حتى تأتيني"، قال: فواريته ثم أتيته فأمرني فاغتسلت، ثم دعا لي بدعوات ما يسرني أن لي بهن ما على الأرض (من) (٣) شيء (٤).
Hazrat Ali (may Allah be pleased with him, may Allah honor his face) narrates that when Abu Talib passed away, I went to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). I said: O Messenger of Allah! Your misguided and elderly uncle has died. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Go to him and cover him, and do not do anything else until you come to me. So I covered him and then came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He instructed me to give him a bath, and he made some supplications for me which, to me, are more desirable than all the things of this world combined.
