People should look again at how we Muslims bury. Not only is it much "green" but also cheap and doesn't waste land forever. There is wisdom in simplicity.

- selimthegrim 6mo agoMuslims are also obliged to attend funerals - that goes double in Punjab for someone in your biradari.
- asadm 6mo agoobliged = attend funeral prayer at local mosque + help in burial. essentially free.
- selimthegrim 6mo agoYes, that's what I meant.
- muzani 6mo agoIt's the opposite of the article. Wrap the body in a cloth. Bury as fast as possible. Bury as cheap as possible. One headstone and one footstone. No buildings on it though the headstones recently have names. Recently there's been more intricate graves and sometimes tombs, but time by time, people fall back to the original traditions. After all, the big caliphs who ruled empires were buried under two stones.
