3. Taharah: [1]

A Nefel receives a regular Taharah, including the placing of earth on the eyes.[2] However, some communities are accustomed not to perform Taharah on a Nefel.

Tachrichin:[3] The burial garments, known as Tachrichin, are not garbed on a Nefel. He is simply wrapped in a white sheet.
