[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ returned one day from a funeral in Baqi' cemetery, and I had a headache. I said, "I have a headache." He said, "No, O Aisha, you have two headaches." Then he said, "What would have happened to you if you had died before me? I would have washed you, shrouded you, prayed for you, and buried you." I said to him, "It is because of my love for you, and by Allah, if you had done that, I would have returned to my house and would have married some of your wives." The Messenger of Allah ﷺ smiled, then his illness, in which he died, began.  

رَجَعَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ مِنْ جِنَازَةٍ بِالْبَقِيعِ وَأَنَا أَجِدُ صُدَاعًا فِي رَأْسِي وَأَنَا أَقُولُ وَارَأْسَاهْ قَالَ بَلْ أَنَا يَا عَائِشَةُ وَارَأْسَاهْ ثُمَّ قَالَ وَمَا ضَرَّكِ لَوْ مِتِّ قَبْلِي فَغَسَّلْتُكِ وَكَفَّنْتُكِ وَصَلَّيْتُ عَلَيْكِ ثُمَّ دَفَنْتُكِ؟ قُلْتُ لَكَأَنِّي بِكَ وَاللهِ لَوْ فَعَلْتَ ذَلِكَ قَدْ رَجَعْتَ إِلَى بَيْتِي فَأَعْرَسْتَ فِيهِ بِبَعْضِ نِسَائِكَ فَتَبَسَّمَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ ثُمَّ بُدِئَ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ  

[Machine] "The daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, 'O Asmaa, if I die, then you and Ali ibn Abi Talib should wash me.' Ali and Asmaa washed her."  

بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَتْ يَا أَسْمَاءُ إِذَا أَنَا مِتُّ فَاغْسِلِينِي أَنْتِ وَعَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ فَغَسَّلَهَا عَلِيٌّ وَأَسْمَاءُ ؓ  

[Machine] Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ, instructed that her husband Ali ibn Abi Talib should wash her body. And he and Asma bint Umais washed her. This narration is reported by Ad-Darawardi from Muhammad ibn Musa from Awn ibn Muhammad ibn Ali from Um Ja'far bint Muhammad ibn Ali, who said: Asma bint Umais informed me that she and Ali washed the body of Fatimah, the daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ. Abu Abdullah al-Hafiz reported to me, Muhammad ibn al-Muammal narrated to me from Al-Fadl ibn Muhammad ash-Sha'arani, who narrated from Al-Nu'ayli, who narrated from Abdul Aziz ibn Muhammad, who narrated to me Muhammad ibn Musa, who mentioned it.  

أَنَّ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ أَوْصَتْ أَنْ يُغَسِّلَهَا زَوْجُهَا عَلِيُّ بْنُ أَبِي طَالِبٍ ؓ فَغَسَّلَهَا هُوَ وَأَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ عُمَيْسٍ 6661 وَرَوَاهُ الدَّرَاوَرْدِيُّ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ مُوسَى عَنْ عَوْنِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ عَنْ عُمَارَةَ بْنِ الْمُهَاجِرِ أَنَّ أُمَّ جَعْفَرٍ بِنْتَ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ قَالَتْ حَدَّثَتْنِي أَسْمَاءُ بِنْتُ عُمَيْسٍ قَالَتْ غَسَّلْتُ أَنَا وَعَلِيٌّ ؓ فَاطِمَةَ بِنْتَ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَبْدِ اللهِ الْحَافِظُ أَخْبَرَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُؤَمَّلِ ثنا الْفَضْلُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الشَّعْرَانِيُّ ثنا النُّفَيْلِيُّ ثنا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُوسَى فَذَكَرَهُ  

[Machine] He washed his wife when she died, and it was narrated to us about washing the husband's wife from Halqamah, Jabir ibn Zayd, Abi Qilabah, and others from the companions. It is also narrated from Abdullah ibn Mas'ud that he washed his wife when she died with a weak chain of narration. It is also narrated from Al-Hajjaj ibn Arta'ah from Dawud ibn Husein from Ikrimah from Ibn Abbas that he said, "The man has more right to wash his wife."  

أَنَّهُ غَسَّلَ امْرَأَتَهُ حِينَ مَاتَتْ وَرُوِّينَا فِي غُسْلِ الزَّوْجِ امْرَأَتَهُ عَنْ عَلْقَمَةَ وَجَابِرِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ وَأَبِي قِلَابَةَ وَغَيْرِهِمْ مِنَ التَّابِعِينَ وَرُوِي عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ أَنَّهُ غَسَّلَ امْرَأَتَهُ حِينَ مَاتَتْ بِإِسْنَادٍ ضَعِيفٍ 6662 وَرُوِيَ عَنِ الْحَجَّاجِ بْنِ أَرْطَاةَ عَنْ دَاوُدَ بْنِ الْحُصَيْنِ عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَالَ الرَّجُلُ أَحَقُّ بِغُسْلِ امْرَأَتِهِ
