Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: Peace be upon you, and Allah’s mercy and blessings. My question is: Is the funeral of a woman perfumed or not?
Answer:
Yes, the funerals of men and women are perfumed. The deceased, whether male or female, is perfumed on his or her eyelids and body, except if he was in a state of ihram. If he died while in ihram for Hajj or 'Umrah, no, he is not perfumed. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade perfuming her if she was in a state of ihram. However, if he died while not in a state of ihram, or if she died while not in a state of ihram, she is perfumed. Yes.
