وَ سُئِلَ الصَّادِقُ ع لِأَيِّ عِلَّةٍ يُغْسَلُ الْمَيِّتُ قَالَ تَخْرُجُ مِنْهُ النُّطْفَةُ الَّتِي خُلِقَ مِنْهَا تَخْرُجُ مِنْ عَيْنَيْهِ أَوْ مِنْ فِيهِ وَ مَا يَخْرُجُ أَحَدٌ مِنَ الدُّنْيَا حَتَّى يَرَى مَكَانَهُ مِنَ الْجَنَّةِ أَوْ مِنَ النَّارِ.

Hadith.375 - Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq (as) was asked: "For what reason is the deceased washed (given ghusl)?" Imam (as) said: "The drop that he was created from, exits from their eyes or their mouth, and no one leaves this world until they see their place in either Paradise or the Fire."
