The Ruling on Applying Oil to the Deceased

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: What is the ruling on applying oil to the deceased?

A: I am not aware of any basis for this; rather, he is to be washed and bathed. However, if oil is applied during the gargling, there is no harm, just as with a living person.
