أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عِيسَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي نَصْرٍ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ يَحْيَى الْكَاهِلِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اللهِ عَلَيْهِ السَّلَامُ قَالَ: إِذَا خَرَجَ مِنْ مَنْخَرِ الْمَيِّتِ الدَّمُ أَوِ الشَّيْءُ بَعْدَ الْغُسْلِ فَأَصَابَ الْعِمَامَةَ أَوِ الْكَفَنَ قُرِضَ بِالْمِقْرَاضِ.
Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Isa narrated from Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Abi Nasr, from Abdullah ibn Yahya al-Kahili, who reported that Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said:
Imam عليه السلام said: "If blood or any discharge comes out of the nose of the deceased after the washing and it soils the turban or the shroud, it should be cut off with scissors."
