Chapter 27 | Cutting of Nails and Hairs of Dead Person Undesirable

1ـ عَلِيُّ بْنُ إِبْرَاهِيمَ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنِ ابْنِ أَبِي عُمَيْرٍ عَنْ بَعْضِ أَصْحَابِهِ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ الله (عَلَيْهِ الْسَّلام) قَالَ لاَ يُمَسُّ مِنَ الْمَيِّتِ شَعْرٌ وَلاَ ظُفُرٌ وَإِنْ سَقَطَ مِنْهُ شَيْءٌ فَاجْعَلْهُ فِي كَفَنِهِ.

1. Ali ibn Ibrahim has narrated from his father from Ibn Abi ‘Umayr from certain persons of his people who has said the following: “Abu ’Abd Allah , has said, ‘Nothing of the hairs or nails of a deceased is touched and if any of such things fall off, you must place them in his shroud.’”
