[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Whoever is entrusted with washing a deceased person and fulfills the trust by covering what is with him, will be free of sin as the day his mother gave birth to him." He also said, "The closest among you to him at night is the one who knows him. If he does not know him, then a man known to be pious and trustworthy."
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ مَنْ وَلِيَ غُسْلَ مَيِّتٍ فَأَدَّى فِيهِ الْأَمَانَةَ يَعْنِي يَسْتُرُ مَا يَكُونُ عِنْدَ ذَلِكَ كَانَ مِنْ ذُنُوبِهِ كَيَوْمِ وَلَدَتْهُ أُمُّهُ قَالَتْ وَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ لِيَلِهِ أَقْرَبُكُمْ مِنْهُ إِنْ كَانَ يَعْلَمُ فَإِنْ كَانَ لَا يَعْلَمُ فَرَجُلٌ مِمَّنْ تَدْرُونَ أَنَّ عِنْدَهُ وَرَعًا وَأَمَانَةً
