Practical applications:
• If a wounded person remains alive after the fighting ends and then eats, drinks or receives treatment, the person is washed for these worldly funeral rulings.
• A Muslim intentionally and unjustly killed by another Muslim with a sharp weapon in a case giving rise to retaliation falls under the martyr ruling discussed in this chapter and is not washed.
• If a dead person is found on the battlefield with a sign of killing or injury, the text applies the martyr's washing and shrouding rulings.
