Sahih Muslim 1206j (Book 15, Hadith 109) #10044
Washing Dead Animals According to Islamic Teachings

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) commanded his companions to wash a dead camel with water mixed with the leaves of a lote tree and to keep its face exposed, as it will be raised on the Day of Resurrection.

Sa'id b. Jubair reported on the authority of Ibn 'Abbas (Allah be pleased with them) that the camel of a person broke his neck as he was in the company of Allah's Messenger . The Messenger of Allah commanded them (Companions) to wash him with water mixed (with the leaves of) the lote (tree) and to keep his face exposed; (he, the narrator) said: And his head (too), for he would be raised on the Day of Resurrection pronouncing Talbiya.
حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، حَدَّثَنَا الأَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، عَنْ زُهَيْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي الزُّبَيْرِ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ سَعِيدَ بْنَ جُبَيْرٍ، يَقُولُ قَالَ ابْنُ عَبَّاسٍ - رضى الله عنهما - وَقَصَتْ رَجُلاً رَاحِلَتُهُ وَهُوَ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ فَأَمَرَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ أَنْ يَغْسِلُوهُ بِمَاءٍ وَسِدْرٍ وَأَنْ يَكْشِفُوا وَجْهَهُ - حَسِبْتُهُ قَالَ - وَرَأْسَهُ فَإِنَّهُ يُبْعَثُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ وَهُوَ يُهِلُّ
