Does the one who washes the deceased need to perform ghusl?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does the one who washes the deceased need to perform ghusl?

Answer:
This is not established. Some of the Companions did it, and there is a weak hadith regarding it. So if a person does it and performs ghusl, that is good and there is no harm. Yes.
