Muslim Funeral Service Etiquette and Processes to Follow

Muslim funerals follow a structured and dignified process, deeply rooted in the teachings of the Qur’an and the Hadith (the sayings and actions of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ). These rites are performed in accordance with Islamic law (Shariah), with specific adherence to Hanafi Sunni fiqh, ensuring the deceased is honoured and returned to Allah in a respectful and proper manner.
