Impurity of dead body

Question:

Assalamu alaykum, when a person passes away, does his body become impure ﺚ ﺧﺒ ﻧﺠﺎﺳﺔ or ﺣﺪث ﻧﺠﺎﺳﺔ. I can see that both opinions have been mentioned but which one is the correct? Answer: ﺑﺴﻢ اﷲ اﻟﺮﺣﻤﻦ اﻟﺮﺣﯿﻢ In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

When a person passes away, then according to the correct opinion his body will become impure “ﺧﺒﺚ ﻧﺠﺎﺳﺔ”.1
