Who Performs the Ritual Bath for a Deceased Girl

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. A girl or schoolgirl of twenty years old; who is responsible for washing the deceased woman?

Answer:
If she is under seven, men and women are responsible for washing her. If she is under seven, men and women are responsible for washing her, provided she has no 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered). Once she reaches seven, men are responsible for washing her. And if she reaches seven, women are responsible for washing her. Yes.
