سَأَلْتُ أَبَا عَبْدِ اللَّهِ ( عليه السلام ) عَنِ الْجِنَازَةِ أَ يُصَلَّى عَلَيْهَا عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ فَقَالَ نَعَمْ إِنَّمَا هُوَ تَكْبِيرٌ وَ تَحْمِيدٌ وَ تَسْبِيحٌ وَ تَهْلِيلٌ كَمَا تُكَبِّرُ وَ تُسَبِّحُ فِي بَيْتِكَ عَلَى غَيْرِ وُضُوءٍ .
Translation
Muhammad Bin Yahya, from Ahmad Bin Muhammad Bin Isa, from Ibn Fazzal, from Yunus Bin Yaqoub who said, ‘I asked Abuy Abdullah<sup>asws</sup> about the deceased, ‘Can one pray <span class="iTxt">Salaat</span> upon (a state) without an ablution?’ So he<sup>asws</sup> said: ‘Yes. But rather, it (the <span class="iTxt">Salaat</span>) is exclamation of <span class="iTxt">Takbeer</span>, and Praise, and Glorification, and Extollation of Holiness, just as you can exclaim <span class="iTxt">Takbeer</span>, and you can Glorify in your house being upon (a state) without an ablution’.
