Ghusl of dead body

Has anyone given ghusl to a dead body (of hanafi madhhab)? Im thinking of doing this at a local masajid but need to learn about the hanafi rulings on the issue first as mainly hanafis around this location. Jazakallah khair.

Definitely go through the fiqh of this first (I'm sure you would anyway!) I haven't had to perform the act myself, but we went through the fiqh of ghusl for the deceased a few weeks ago and there were a few rulings which were neither straightforward or obvious at all.
