Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a deceased person is buried without being washed, is the grave exhumed so that he can be washed and prayed over again?
Answer:
If it is recent, the grave is exhumed, and he is washed, shrouded, and prayed over. However, if enough time has passed for the body to decompose, he is only prayed over; the prayer is performed over the grave, and that is sufficient.
