Carrying the deceased, so let him perform wudu’) Does this mean carrying him directly or carrying the bier?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Yes?

The questioner : His saying (peace and blessings be upon him):
And whoever carries him, let him perform wudu ومن حمله فليتوضأ
.

The Shaykh : What?

The questioner :
And whoever carries him, let him perform wudu ومن حمله فليتوضأ
.

The Shaykh : Yes.

The questioner : Is this specific to the one who carries him directly, or does it include the one who carries the bier?

The Shaykh : The apparent meaning is that it refers to the one who carries him on the bier, because carrying him directly is not known, and it is not known except for the one who washes him, for example, or carries him to the washing bed, so it is understood to apply to the common case.
