Is it recommended to remove what is in the stomach of the deceased when washing him?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner: O Shaykh ... regarding funerals, O Shaykh?

The Shaykh : How?

The questioner: ... washing the deceased, O Shaykh, is it recommended when washing the deceased to remove what is in his stomach, such as impurities?

The Shaykh: This is not a recommended practice!

The questioner: It is a religious innovation, O Shaykh.

The Shaykh: Rather, this is only for some individuals where it is likely that they have something in their stomachs, but as a recommended practice, no.

The questioner : May Allah bless you. May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh: Peace be upon you.

Those present : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
