[Machine] She said: "The daughter of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ has passed away." So the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said: "Wash her with water and sidr three, five, or more times if you see the need, and put some camphor in the last washing. When you have finished, inform me so that I may come and offer funeral prayer for her." So we informed him, and he came and offered the funeral prayer for her, and said: "Say the same to him before you bury her."
