Sayid, call in sick! lool, to be fair its very difficult situation especially to any practising muslim (not part-timers)and I believe you should consult with learned ppl and then make up your mind.

[Sherban Shabeel]

Jeez, you really think God would hold it against you that you went to a non-Muslim's funeral? Use your own mind and reasoning that God has bestowed upon you, and stop looking towards others for guidance. What, you're afraid your soul is going to catch a disease or something?

 

If you're a Muslim you're a Muslim. Attending a funeral, or being in a church, or whatever, you're still going to be a good Muslim at the end of the day. I'm a Christian, I've been to mosques, I have a Somali/Arabic Qur'an, and I'm still a Christian. A religion isn't something that just falls off you like a hat in the wind.

 

I say, think about it really well, and then make up your mind, regardless of my personal opinion or the personal opinion of people on this forum. Me, personally, I believe I am a human being above anything else, and I will go to the funeral of someone who has been kind to me in life, no matter their religion or rituals. Kindness and decency, to me, trump religious denomination. Might not be the case for everyone.

 

P.S.: If you guys don't come to my funeral, I'll be pretty pissed I think

[Sensei]

Avoid the wake ceremony, avoid any ceremony that takes place in a church. Visiting the family of the deceased privately would probably serve the purpose.

 

a quick question, how well did you know this person ?

[Naxar Nugaaleed]

what should I do? Be a human and treat others as you would have others treat you, this is the common principle among all the worlds religion. If you fear Gods wrath for treating others kindly, wrap a fence around yourself and call it a day. as for going to a church, not only can you go, you can pray in there if you can find a mosque.

diinteeyda aniga ii daa iyo faragilintaa iga daa, shaqadeeyda weeye maxaa kaa galay any way? You're a bit of an annoying evangelist yaa Tuujiye... as you can see I know Islam pretty well, but you're upset because I don't share your convictions so wareerka naga daa iyo mind your own business...

[Ibtisam]

No idea if you got your answer but Sayid You cannot attend the funeral as you will be praying for whatever they believe in or participating in their funeral processions = misbelieve, so you cannot attend the service, however you can and should pay your respects to his family after the religious service and offer them help and what ever else.

 

P.s. I had a similar issue and that is what the shike said to me years ago. I told them honestly I cannot attend the service (hindu) but I will join them after, since they have restrictions in their own religion and cannot attend our services etc they were very understanding. Take them food and a bit of shopping after.

 

I have the evidence somewhere at home.

Just a quick a question for Sherbeen and the others,

 

• If your neighbor/coworker was a:

   

  - known serial killer would you attend there funeral?

   

  - a known pedophile would you attend there funeral?

   

  - a known rapist, would you attend there funeral?

There is know obligation to enter their homes either. A khanees, a rapist, a pedophile, a munafaq etc., there is no obligation to enter their homes.

I don't think Sayid ever mentioned that his neighbor was a criminal, put a sock on your nonesense yaa Khayr What are you getting at?

[Gheelle.T]

- a known pedophile would you attend there funeral?

 

- a known rapist, would you attend there funeral?

You mean your next prison cell neighbor? How could one have criminals as coworker or neighbors unless you are sharing a cell with them in prison. Waryaa this is not how you spin things, try it again.

a simple dont go would suffice, knowing sayid and how caajislow he is he probably wont go citing tiredness, work or other commitments

 

marka why isku daalineenaa

[Khayr]

Ailamos,

 

The arguments are still the same. Some people's prespective is 'live and let live" and "we are all part of the human family". So if we are part of the human family and a pedophile or rapist was your neighbor and passed away, would you attend their funeral? How about a terrrrrorist? After all, they are all part of the Human Family and in each case, a potentional neighbor.

 

Please read carefully and analyze, thinking and draw out your arguments. Don't just twitter, this ain't that site.
