Through this chain of narration, from Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Yahya, from al-Hasan ibn Khurrazad, from al-Husayn ibn Rashid, from Ali ibn Isma'il, from Abu Sa'id, who said: I heard Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, say: “If a woman dies among a group of people and has no mahram among them, they should pour water over her without direct contact. Similarly, if a man dies among women and has no mahram among them” Abu Hanifah said that they should pour water over him without touching him. However, Abu Abdillah عليه السلام, said: “Rather, it is permissible for them to touch the parts of his body that they were allowed to look at while he was alive. When they reach the parts that were not lawful for them to look at or touch while he was alive, they should then pour water over those areas without direct contact.”
