Hawzah News Agency – Is the person carrying out ghusl, shrouding and burial for the deceased to be of the same sex as that of the dead person? Or is it allowed for a person of the opposite sex to perform the affairs of the dead body?

A: Only the person doing ghusl for the deceased must be of the same sex as them. Hence, where ghusl can be given by persons of the same gender, it is not valid for a person of the opposite sex to engage in it and the ghusl is void. But sameness of sex is not a condition for shrouding and burying.
