Washing of the Deceased

374. hadíth

وَقَالَ اَلصَّادِقُ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: «مَا مِنْ مَيِّتٍ يَحْضُرُهُ اَلْوَفَاةُ إِلاَّ رَدَّ اَللَّهُ عَزَّ وَ جَلَّ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ بَصَرِهِ وَ سَمْعِهِ وَ عَقْلِهِ آخِذاً لِلْوَصِيَّةِ أَوْ تَارِكاً وَ هِيَ اَلرَّاحَةُ اَلَّتِي يُقَالُ لَهَا رَاحَةُ اَلْمَوْتِ.

Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (a.s) said: "There is no dying person for whom Allah (swt), the Mighty and Glorious, does not return their sight, hearing, and intellect at the moment of death, whether they are giving a final will or not. This is the 'relief of death' that is referred to as the comfort of passing away."
