The questioner : Peace be upon you.
The Shaykh : Peace be upon you and Allah's mercy.
The questioner : How are you, Shaykh? I am well, Shaykh. Is it permissible for a menstruating woman to wash the dead?
The Shaykh : The scholars (may Allah have mercy on them) said that it is disliked for a person in a state of major ritual impurity or a menstruating woman to wash the dead, but if there is a need, and if the menstruating woman is the one who knows how to wash the female corpse, she washes her, and there is no blame on her.
