Question

I would like to know that after exhuming a body, does the Ghusl and Janaazah salaah have to be repeated?

Answer

There is no repetition of the Janaazah Salaah once the Salaah has been performed. Hence, in the questioned scenario, there is no need for another Janaazah Salaah. Similarly, there is no need to repeat the Ghusl.

Ask Ibn Masood

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Darul Ifta Ibn Masood. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
