Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. The questioner asks: What is done with a deceased person whose washing is impossible due to his body being torn apart?
Answer:
He performs tayammum with dust, wiping his face and his hands, and this suffices in place of washing him, if the water would harm him and tear his body, such as if he were burned, or if his body were torn apart by a collapse or a car accident or something similar. He performs tayammum, and this is sufficient.
