Sa'd ibn 'Abdullah narrated from Abu Ja‘far, from 'Ali ibn Hadid, from 'Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi Najran and al-Husayn ibn Sa‘id, from Hammad, from Hariz. Hariz said: Abu ‘Abdullah عليه السلام informed me, saying, "The deceased is started with the washing of his private parts, then he is given ablution (Wudu) like that of prayer." And he mentioned the rest of the narration.
