The ruling on what is narrated about a dead person who returns to life during his washing

The questioner:
One of the brothers confided in me just now a report about the narrator. He said that a man died and stayed in the hospital refrigerator for a full day. When they were washing him, he stood up and said to the ones washing him, "What are you doing to him?" That is what he said, so I do not know.

The Shaykh:
We have not heard this, and even if we did, we would reject it.

Another questioner:
No way.

The Shaykh:
Who is this?

Another questioner:
Yes, in years past, there was a dispute between me and one of the brothers. And I mean, frankly, it is over.

The Shaykh:
They put him in the cooking pot, then it turns out he is alive, and they take him out of the pot.

Another questioner:
Come on, Shaykh, let us go back to him.

The Shaykh:
What do you mean? What do you mean? A person may be placed on the bier, then it turns out he is alive, and he is returned to his treatment and his home. He may be placed in the grave, then it turns out he is alive, and he is dug out. This is a reality; it has happened many times. A person is panicked, he suffers a fainting spell, he suffers a stroke, a fainting spell, his movements stop, he is thought to be dead, then his movements resume on the bier, or at the grave, or after being put in the grave, or during the washing. They return him to his home, and Allah writes for him what was of life, and then he dies.
