It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever washes a deceased person should take a ritual bath (ghusl), and whoever carries a funeral bier should perform ablution (wudu)." (b) This is the well-known version of the hadith of Ibn Abi Dhi'b, but Salih, the freed slave of al-Taw'amah, in it is not strong.
