The one who washes the deceased reports signs of good, not evil
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Does the one who washes the deceased disclose some of the signs of good and evil?
A: There is no harm in reporting signs of good, but as for evil, there is; because that is backbiting. However, if he says, “Some of the deceased appear black or something else,” there is no harm. But what is forbidden is for him to say, “I washed so-and-so and I saw in him such-and-such signs of evil”; because that saddens his family and harms them, and it is backbiting.
