How should ghusl be given to a dead transgender person?

Answer

The Shariah has three classes of persons: male, female, hermaphrodite (khuntha mushkil). A hermaphrodite or a person with both male and female sexual organs is termed Khuntha Mushkil. It is not permissible to effect ghusal to the mayyit if the person is a Khuntha Mushkil. Tayammum should be effected.

Khuntha Mushkil is a person whose sex cannot be determined on account of both sex organs being equally functional. If any one organ has greater dominance, the person will be classified accordingly and will then not be Khuntha Mushkil, e.g. If the male organ only functions or is more functional than the female organ, the person will be classified as a male or vice versa.
