Chapter on Touching the Deceased

وَ فِي خَبَرٍ آخَرَ: «إِنَّ عَلِيّاً عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ لَمْ يُغَسِّلْ، عَمَّارَ بْنَ يَاسِرٍ وَ لاَ هَاشِمَ بْنَ عُتْبَةَ وَ هُوَ اَلْمِرْقَالُ وَ دَفَنَهُمَا فِي ثِيَابِهِمَا بِدِمَائِهِمَا وَ لَمْ يُصَلِّ عَلَيْهِمَا.
In another report, "Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib عليه السلام, did not wash Ammar ibn Yasir and Hashim ibn Utbah (known as al-Mirqal). He buried them in their clothing with their blood and did not offer funeral prayers for them”.
