Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Honorable Shaykh, is a child in the ninth month who died in his mother’s womb washed and prayed over?
Answer:
If it has passed or reached four months, and it is born dead, then it has the ruling of funerals. It is washed, shrouded, prayed over, and buried in a Muslim cemetery; because the soul was breathed into it.
