Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The third question: During earthquakes and collapses, many people die.

The Shaykh: Yes, by Allah.

The questioner : And body parts are found, as you know, so some of them say: If these people are not washed, is there any blame in that?

The Shaykh : If it is possible to wash them, then there is blame in leaving them without washing them.

The questioner : Yes, even if their number is large, is it obligatory to wash them?

The Shaykh : Even if; because the living—praise be to Allah—are more numerous than the dead.

The questioner : Sound statement.
