The ruling on a woman washing her husband when he dies

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is it permissible for a woman to wash her husband when he dies?

Answer:
Yes, a woman may wash her husband; because the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said to 'A'ishah:
If I were to die before you, I would wash youلو مت قبلي؛ لغسلتك
And 'Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) washed Fatimah, and Asma' bint Umayyad washed al-Siddiq, Abu Bakr, her husband, so there is no blame in that, yes.

The presenter : May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good.
