Muhammad had sex with a dead woman to qualify her for the perks of a prophetic wife.
God! This is gross! What is the problem with these people? In addition to having sex with 6-year old girls and 10-year old boys (in addition to camels, goats, and other animals), these people are also allowed to have sex with dead bodies?
If this is true, then that's just revolting. And why the hell would he have to "sleep" with a corpse? Can't he just pray over it or something to bless it? Or you know, maybe raise her from the dead?

Abd Al-Bari Al-Zamzami : A few days ago, I was asked by the
Al-Sabbah newspaper about men who have sex with their dead wives. The truth is that this question took me by surprise, and I asked the journalist whether there really are people who do this deplorable and disgraceful act, which is not to be expected from a normal, balanced person. Only a mentally or psychologically unbalanced man would do such a thing.
In any case, I do not have the right to prohibit things. Fatwas are not shaped according to one’s will or whim. Rather, they reflect the law of Allah.
Therefore, I do not have the right to prohibit that act merely because I consider it deplorable.
The evidence I relied upon in this case was that a wife’s death does not sever her relations with her husband. A wife’s death does not sever her marital relations with her husband. She remains his wife post mortem, in the Hereafter, just as she was his wife in her lifetime.
It is perfectly clear that marital relations are not severed by a wife’s death. She remains her husband’s wife. This being the case, the husband has the right to do whatever he wants with her. For instance, he may kiss her. It is common for a husband to kiss his wife after her death, out of love and sorrow. This is something that is done, and there is nothing wrong with it.
The fact that such an act is permissible does not make it commendable or even acceptable. Having sex with your wife’s corpse is permitted but not commendable.
DISGUSTING!
