Narrated with this chain of transmission from Muhammad bin Ya‘qub, from a group of our companions, from Sahl bin Ziyad, who raised it to Abu Abdillah عليه السلام: Imam عليه السلام was asked about if a man dies on a ship and it is not possible to reach the shore. Imam عليه السلام said: “He should be shrouded, embalmed, and wrapped in cloth, then cast into the water.”
