  • Funeral Services in the Unfortunate Event of Death of a Family Member
    Funeral Services In the unfortunate event of death of a family member or friend, MCA provides complete Islamic funeral arrangements including: § Obtaining a death certificate and burial permit. § Arrangements for storing a body. § Ghusl (washing) before burial. § Janaza (funeral) prayer. § Transportation to a burial ground. § Acquiring a burial plot at a number of cemeteries. § One phone call is required to initiate this process. What to do before imminent death? Family members of the dying person and their most pious friends should be present at their side to help turn the final thoughts to Allah, reminding him or her of all the good deeds they did, about Allah's mercy, and Allah's favors. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Let no Muslim die except expecting and hoping the best from Allah" (Muslim). Family members and friends can advise the dying person very gently (encouragement without insistence) to say the shahada: "La Illaha illallah", which means there is no God but Allah, in a very kind and sincere manner as these may be their last words. Abu Saeed Al- Khuduri reported that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) said: "Help Muslims who are dying to say "La Illaha illallah" (Muslim). Family members should make Dua (supplication) to Allah to help make the final moments easy, and to forgive them. What can MCA do for you? 1. Arrange transportation of the body 2. Wash the body Islamicaly 3. Shrouding (kafan) and a casket 4. Arrange for the congregational funeral prayer All items 1-4 take place at Masjid An-Noor at 1755 Catherine St, Santa Clara. Burial can be at Five Pillars Farm, an Islamic Cemetery in Livermore, CA, or at any cemetery in the Bay Area, CA.

  • What Should Be Done When a Loved One Dies?
    1 What Should be Done when a Loved One Dies? The following are the specific Islamic rites honoring the deceased: 1) Closing the eyes of the deceased: The Prophet (pbuh) said, “When a soul is seized, the eyesight follows it.” 2) Covering the deceased: Covering the deceased is a way of respecting and preserving the dignity of the deceased. 3) Donation of organs: Donate any organ or part of the body only if the deceased requested in his/her will and testament or is registered as a donor. Family members have no rights to donate organs or parts of the body without the prior consent of the deceased. 4) Arrangements for burial: Family members may contact any Islamic funeral director in the area to handle the burial procedures including the funeral prayer and prepare for burial without delay. 5) Informing relatives and friends: It is desirable to inform relatives, neighbors, friends and co- workers of the deceased about his or her death so that they may share in the reward of participating in the funeral prayer as well as praying for the deceased. 6) Washing the body: The guardian of the deceased should wash, wrap and arrange for the funeral prayer prior to burial. The funeral director may assist in case the guardian is unable to do so. 7) Funeral prayer: The funeral prayer or salat al-Janazah is a collective duty upon the Muslim community. The funeral prayer may be performed at a mosque or any public community hall. The prayer is led by a local Imam or preferably by the male guardian, son or any person the deceased may have designated.

  • DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS in ACCORDANCE to CLASSICAL ISLAMIC LAW THROUGHOUT the MUSLIM-MAJORITY WORLD Introduction
    Junayd Rehman TWIN HALVES OF MEN1: AN EXAMINATION OF THE MODERN APPLICATION OF KHULA DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS IN ACCORDANCE TO CLASSICAL ISLAMIC LAW THROUGHOUT THE MUSLIM-MAJORITY WORLD Introduction Simply put, marriage in Islamic Law is a contract.2 Unlike Western notions, be they influenced by various Christian Churches to think of the act of marriage as a holy sacrament, or by the post- Enlightenment secular state—still largely affected by the influence of the Church’s thinking of marriage as a sacrament—marriage in Islam is a contract between two parties, undertaken so they may fulfil their human inclinations and desires, of both procreation and intimacy, within the permissible boundaries of God’s law.3 The first part of this paper will give a brief overview of the concepts of marriage according to Islamic Classical law, and the history and reasonings surrounding its exercise. The second part of this paper will then delve into much of the same except revolving around divorce in multifaceted approaches in Islamic law, one of which is the khula, or the woman’s right to divorce her husband by forfeiting her mahr, which is typically a payment of money or other material possessions—ranging from anything to gold, a house, a vehicle, a parcel of land, furniture, etc.,— paid for by the groom to the bride at the time of their marriage, and is stipulated in the signed marriage contract between the bride and groom.4 The principal of khula will then be more thoroughly examined as an option of divorce in Islamic law, along with its benefits and drawbacks,

  • Islamic Funeral Rites and Practices Question
    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - ISLAMIC FUNERAL RITES AND PRACTICES QUESTION Is post mortem allowed in Islam? ANSWER It is not permitted under normal circumstances since the mayyit should be treated with respect. According to a hadith of the Prophet (upon whom be Allah's blessings and peace), "Breaking the bones of a deceased person, is tantamount to breaking his bones when alive." (Reported by Abu Dawud, Ibn Majah). The only exception is when foul play is suspected, and there is a need for criminal investigation. Maslahali 'aammah (public interest) outweighs other considerations in this situation. QUESTION Can a mayyit be transported to another country for burial? ANSWER It is preferred that the mayyit be buried in the country of death. However, if a person dies while travelling abroad, his body can be transported to his homeland for burial. The body of Caliph Abu Bakr's son was brought to Madinah for burial, although' Aishah, the mother of the faithful, expressed displeasure over it, and wished he had been buried at the place of death. It is also reported that (because of some pressing reasons) Jabir b. Abd Allah, one of the Companions of the Prophet (upon whom be Allah's blessings and peace), relocated the body of his father six months after burial (Abu Dawud). QUESTION Are there any special du 'as to be recited while bathing a mayyit? ANSWER There are no prescribed dua's to be recited. However one should recite Bismillaahi arrahmaani raheem (In the name of Allah, the Beneficent, the Merciful) when starting ghusl. There is no mention anywhere that the Prophet (upon whom be Allah's blessings and peace) prescribed any du 'as for this occasion.

  • Punishment for Rape in Islamic Law
    Page 1 Malayan Law Journal Articles/2009/Volume 5/PUNISHMENT FOR RAPE IN ISLAMIC LAW [2009] 5 MLJ cxiv Malayan Law Journal Articles 2009 PUNISHMENT FOR RAPE IN ISLAMIC LAW Dr Azman Mohd Noor Assistant Professor Department of Fiqh and Usul al-Fiqh International Islamic University Malaysia In Islam, rape is considered to be a serious sexual crime. Since it consists of forcible sexual intercourse, most of the classical jurists called it zina bi al-ikrah, that is, forcible unlawful sexual intercourse. The ques- tionarises as to whether rape is part of zina or an isolated crime. This paper focuses on the notion of rape, including a definition of this crime, its punishments and a comparison between rape and zina in Islamic ju- risprudence. INTRODUCTION Many controversial issues have arisen recently pertaining to rape, ranging from the actual definition of rape, its classification, adjudication and punishment, and ending with the compensation that is to be paid to the rape victim(s). To a layman, rape has always been associated with zina in the sense that both crimes involve sexual intercourse; this perception is in fact not quite right. To make things more confusing, some modern Islamic Courts in the Muslim world today too, have posited rape to zina in which the victim could be liable for slanderous accusation (qadhf) if she fails to produce four male eyewitnesses to support her indictment. Modern as well as classical scholars of the past have thoroughly studied the issues, based on Islamic sources, and have arrived at the standard of proof required to convict a rapist.

  • Muslim Areas at Municipal Cemeteries in Germany and Austria1
    Studia Religiologica 50 (3) 2017, s. 203–220 doi:10.4467/20844077SR.17.013.7746 www.ejournals.eu/Studia-Religiologica Muslim Areas at Municipal Cemeteries in Germany and Austria1 Martin Klapetek Department of Philosophy and Study of Religions University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice [email protected] Abstract The paper is devoted to funeral culture and its connection to the acculturation of Muslims in German and Austrian society. The vast majority of the deceased are still transported back to their country of origin, which hampers the successful integration of their families. With regard to the establishment of specialised areas within municipal cemeteries, the significance of the process of institutionalisa- tion of Muslim organisations has become clear, as has the emphasis on experts. An increase in the number of Muslim burials in Western Europe is expected in future. Importance is also attached to the funerals of new-borns, but the long-term integration effect of such funerals on the whole family is still debatable. Problems with operation of Islamic cemeteries in Germany are influenced by con- ferring public rights on Muslim organisations. However, some examples of successful operation of Islamic cemeteries can already be found in Austria. The current situation is influenced by the need to respond to an ever-increasing number of seniors from the first generation of Muslim migrants and asylum seekers from the second half of the last century. The creation of special areas at munici- pal cemeteries may not actually constitute an expression of separation. It rather corresponds to the process of integration within a stratified society.
