Guidelines for a ghusal khana

Submitted by user2 on Mon, 2018-11-12 06:56

Q: A ghusal khana was constructed in our locality. We want to put up a poster on the wall with a few guidelines regarding the ghusal khana,for example:

1. There should be no mixing of males and females.

2. Only those carrying out the ghusal and those assisting in the ghusal should be present, others should wait outside.

3. Silence should be maintained in the ghusal khana at all times.

4. No item of the ghusal khana should be removed for personal use.

5. No pictures or videos should be taken at any time.

We would appreciate if you could please correct and approve the above together with adding more points.

Building the graveyard boundary pillar on a portion of a grave

Submitted by user2 on Tue, 2018-10-09 06:16

Q: There is a qabrastan in our town which runs under the management of our masjid and I work as a supervisor there. As we have limited space in our qabrastan we have to refill the mud every 5 to 10 years because we only have one qabrastan in our town. We have tried a lot to find another place for a qabrastan but unfortunately we were not able to find one because of different circumstances as its a hindu nation and the percentage of Muslims in total is only 4.3%.

We have made 3 gates in a boundary to enter the qabristan and we have to make stairs and pillars. Few months ago, a person passed away and was burried in the same qabristan and unfortunately the pillar that we were making has been placed slightly on his qabr but not totally on it.

We are facing a lot of issues regarding this so can you please inform us if shariah allows us to do this since the work is almost finished and its very hard to break down the pillars again.

Q: Me and my wife life where there is no Muslim graveyard. There is only a Christian graveyard. My wife also reverted to Islam. If me or my wife die can we be buried in the Christian graveyard if we don't have money to send the body to a Muslim country. If someone makes our funeral in a Muslim country masjid while our body is not there, will this funeral be valid while we buried in this non muslim country?

Who should help with the burial arrangements

Submitted by user2 on Sun, 2018-04-22 07:31

Q: In case of a death in a family, for example the father dies, then who is responsible for fulfilling the requirements such as bringing kafan, digging the grave, making arrangements for the guests to sit and stay, and so on? Because the near ones such as the wife, sons and daughters of the deceased are in grief, so they are not in a position to make necessary arrangements.

Marriage terminating with death

Submitted by user2 on Wed, 2018-01-24 06:39

Q: I came across that death terminates marriage. But I have seen a hadith that our Nabi (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said to Ayesha (radhiyallahu anha) that if she dies first then he will give her a bath. Also, Ali (radhiyallahu anhu) gave Fatima (radhiyallahu anha) a bath. Can you give me authentic ahaadith and proofs that death terminates marriage? In afterlife, will husband and wife would be together in jannah. So it is really confusing.
