Women’s Performing Salah (Prayer) for a Dead Person

5ـ حَمَّادٌ عَنْ حَرِيزٍ عَمَّنْ أَخْبَرَهُ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ الطَّامِثُ تُصَلِّي عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ لأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ فِيهَا رُكُوعٌ وَلاَ سُجُودٌ وَالْجُنُبُ تَتَيَمَّمُ وَتُصَلِّي عَلَى الْجِنَازَةِ.
5. Hammad has narrated from Hariz from those whom he has mentioned who has said the following: “Abu ‘Abd Allah عليه السلام, has said, ‘Woman experiencing Hayd (menses) can also perform Salah (prayer) for a deceased; there is no Ruku‘, and Sajdah. One experiencing sexual relation can take Tayammum and performs Salah (prayer) for a deceased.’”
