Salafs sayings

Abu ad-Dardaa narrated [Saheeh Muslim, No.6588]: The Messenger of Allaah said: «No believing servant supplicates for his brother behind his back (in his absence), except that the Angels say: "The same be for you too".»
al-Imaam an-Nawawee comments [Riyaadh as-Saaliheen #1494]: This hadeeth makes it evident that one who prays for someone in his absence also stands to benefit from it because the angel appointed for the task of praying for those who pray for others will pray for him, saying, "O Allaah! Grant him also the same which he has asked for others".

There is no harm in the Husband washing his wife

 


Question:

Verily, we have often heard from the common people that the wife is forbidden to her husband after death, meaning after her death. They say that it is not permissible for him to look at her nor is he allowed to put her into her place in the grave. Is this correct? Please answer us, and may Allah bless you.
Answer:

The legislative proofs of Islam prove that there is no harm in the woman washing her husband (after death) and looking at him, and there is no harm in the husband washing his wife and looking at her. Asma' bint Umays washed her husband Abu Bakr As-Siddiq, and Fatimah willed that 'Ali (her husband) wash her (upon her death) (may Allah be pleased with them). And Allah is the Giver of success.
