Hazrat Sahl bin Siraj narrates that Muhammad bin Sirin was asked about some people who were brought to him. Regarding their condition, he said: If they were told to pray, they would pray; if not told, they would not pray. One of these people has passed away; should his funeral prayer be performed? He replied: Has it become clear to you that he is from the people of Hell? They answered: No. He said: Then bathe him, shroud him, apply fragrance, and perform his funeral prayer.
