Faeces came out after the deceased was washed

Question

The deceased was washed and already dressed in the kafan, after which faeces came out. What is the ruling in this situation? Shall we wash him again and give him a new kafan, or wrap him in the same kafan?

Answer

Whatever part of the body and of the cloth has become impure should be purified; there is no need to wash him again or to change the kafan.
