Chapter on Instructing the Dying (Talqin al-Muhtadarin)

مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ يَحْيَى عَنْ أَحْمَدَ بْنِ اَلْحَسَنِ بْنِ عَلِيِّ بْنِ فَضَّالٍ عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ مُصَدِّقِ بْنِ صَدَقَةَ عَنْ عَمَّارٍ اَلسَّابَاطِيِّ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: أَنَّهُ سُئِلَ عَنِ اَلْمَرْأَةِ إِذَا مَاتَتْ فِي نِفَاسِهَا كَيْفَ تُغَسَّلُ قَالَ« مِثْلَ غُسْلِ اَلطَّاهِرِ وَ كَذَلِكَ اَلْحَائِضُ وَ كَذَلِكَ اَلْجُنُبُ إِنَّمَا يُغَسَّلُ غُسْلاً وَاحِداً فَقَطْ».
Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Yahya, from Ahmad bin al-Hasan bin Ali bin Faddal, from Amr bin Saeed, from Musaddiq bin Sadaqa, from Ammar al-Sabati, from Abu Abdullah عليه السلام: Imam عليه السلام was asked about a woman who dies during childbirth - how should she be washed? Imam عليه السلام replied: "Like the washing of a purified woman. Likewise, a menstruating woman and a person in a state of major ritual impurity (janabah) are washed with only one washing."
