Is it permissible for a man to wash, shroud, and bury his wife after her death?
A man is permitted to wash, shroud, and bury his wife. The proof for this is the saying of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, to Aisha: "What harm would it do you if you were to die before me, and I would wash you, shroud you, pray over you, and bury you?"
