As salaamu alaikum wa rahmatullah
A sister on my group asks the following questions that came up in a janazah workshop:
*Is it necessary to remove hair extensions and fake nails (authoo billah)from a deceased body prior to washing them?
*Can a sister who is menstruating wash a body?
Barakallahu feeum.

Question: Is it necessary to remove hair extensions from a deceased body prior to washing?
Hope this helps insha'Allaah

Narrated Hafsa bint Sirin:
quote:
"Umm 'Atiyya said that they had entwined the hair of the daughter of the Messenger of Allaah صل الله عليه و سلم in three braids. They first undid her hair, washed and then entwined it in three braids.
