The ruling on touching the bodies of disbelievers with respect to wudu'
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. The Honorable Shaykh, he says: We are a group of students who perform embalming on the bodies of disbelievers, and our hands touch their bodies. Does our wudu' become invalid?
Answer:
Your wudu' does not become invalid, because the body of a human being is pure; even impurity does not make the body of a human being impure. So your wudu' does not become invalid in that. If one touches the private parts directly, whether from a living person or a dead one, the wudu' becomes invalid. As for touching the rest of the body, whether from a living or dead human being, this does not invalidate the wudu'.
