1. The method of ghusl of miyyit:
It is obligatory to give three Ghusls to a dead body. The first bathing should be with water mixed with Sidr (Beri) leaves. The second bathing should be with water mixed with camphor and the third should be with unmixed water.
Ghusl for a dead body is similar to Ghusl of Janabat. And the obligatory precaution is that a corpse should not be given Ghusl by Irtimasi, that is, immersion, as long as it is possible to give Ghusl by way of Tartibi. And even in the case of Tartibi Ghusl it is necessary that the body should be washed on the right side first, and then the left side.
And the recommended precaution is that, if possible, none of the three parts of the body be immersed in the water. Instead water should be poured on the dead body.

2. Rules regarding Kafan:
The body of a dead Muslim should be given Kafan with three pieces of cloth: a loincloth, a shirt or tunic, and a full cover.
As a precaution, the loincloth should be long enough to cover the body from the navel up to the knees, better still if it covers the body from the chest up to the feet. As a precaution, the shirt should be long enough to cover the entire body from the top of the shoulders up to the middle of the calf, and better still if it reaches the feet. As a precaution, the sheet cover should be long enough to conceal the whole body, so that both its ends could be tied.breadth of it should be enough to allow one side to overlap the other.
