The Permissibility of a Spouse Washing the Other After Death

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Is it better for a man to be washed by his wife or by men?

A: It is permissible for a woman to wash her husband if she is knowledgeable about the procedure. Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) washed his wife Fatimah (may Allah be pleased with her), and Asma bint Umayyis washed her husband Abu Bakr al-Siddiq (may Allah be pleased with him) .
