Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner asks: Is the martyr washed and shrouded?
Answer:
A martyr of the battlefield is not washed and not shrouded, so that his blood and the marks of martyrdom remain on him. As for a martyr other than one of the battlefield, such as a martyr of a collapse, drowning, or fire, he is washed and shrouded, and the funeral prayer is performed over him. He has the reward of the martyrs in the Hereafter. But in this world, he is treated as the dead are treated. Yes.
