What is the ruling if the mayyit is buried without ghusl?

Question

What is the ruling if the mayyit is buried without ghusl? Should the grave be opened and the mayyit be given ghusl?

Answer

No, the grave may not be opened. This misfortune has befallen the mayyit by the decree of Allah Ta'ala. There is no way of correcting this error. Just make dua for the forgiveness of the mayyit.
