Washing of the Deceased
Man Lā Yaḥḍuruh al-Faqīh|Volume 1|Book 1|Chapter 24
وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «مَا مِنْ مَيِّتٍ يَحْضُرُهُ اَلْوَفَاةُ إِلاَّ رَدَّ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ بَصَرِهِ وَ سَمْعِهِ وَ عَقْلِهِ آخِذاً لِلْوَصِيَّةِ أَوْ تَارِكاً وَ هِيَ اَلرَّاحَةُ اَلَّتِي يُقَالُ لَهَا رَاحَةُ اَلْمَوْتِ.
Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام said: "There is no dying person for whom Allah سبحانه وتعالى, the Mighty and Glorious, does not return their sight, hearing, and intellect at the moment of death, whether they are giving a final will or not. This is the 'relief of death' that is referred to as the comfort of passing away."
