Islamic funeral services are simple and quick. Islamic tradition teaches that it’s important to be swift in burying the deceased and avoiding any unnecessary delays. When someone passes away, it’s not uncommon for a burial to take place on the same day or the next day. Islamic law, or sharia, dictates that funeral arrangements must start immediately after the death of a loved one. This means there is no viewing or visitation, and mourners must attend their mosque’s prayer room to offer religious prayers for the deceased. The funeral service consists of a traditional method for washing and preparing the body for the Hereafter. And then the Janazah prayer is performed, which is a special prayer made for the forgiveness of the deceased and living. The only option for burial is in the ground because of the Islamic belief that we are made of clay and return to clay and will be raised from clay on the Day of Judgment. Over the years, Paak Funeral Home has built a brand that people recognize and trust. They created a website that’s easy to find, modern, and accessible on mobile devices.
