Salatul Janāzah (Funeral Prayer) for Ayatollah Hashemi Shahroudi
Islamic funerary found at the Domvs Romana in Rabat, Malta – c. 11th century

Funerals and funeral prayers in Islam (Arabic: جنازة, romanized: Janāzah) follow fairly specific rites, though they are subject to regional interpretation and variation in custom. In all cases, however, sharia (Islamic religious law) calls for burial of the body as soon as possible, preceded by a simple ritual involving bathing and shrouding the body,[1] followed by Salat al-jinazah (funeral prayer). It is important to determine the cause of death before burial. Mourning for the deceased is observed for three days except for the widow for whom it's 4 months and 10 days.[2] Cremation of the body is strictly forbidden in Islam.[3][4]
