“Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un.” – To Allah we belong and unto Him shall we return.
One of the hardest things we will ever have to do is say goodbye to those we love and care for. Islam teaches Muslims to accept this ultimate fate by submitting to the wish of our Creator with patience and praying for mercy and forgiveness for the deceased.
MARWA provides funeral services for Muslims in the Wagga Wagga region according to the Islamic funeral and burial rites and in accordance with the Australian legal requirements. MARWA accommodates for complete Islamic funeral arrangements that include the following:
- Washing of the deceased (this can also be done by family or loved ones if requested).
- Wrapping of the deceased in a burial shroud.
- Provision of appropriate casket.
- Transport to funeral prayer at Mosque.
- Burial plot purchase at appropriate cemetery.
- Transport of the deceased to the cemetery.
- Burial at cemetery.
The funeral prayer can be performed at CSU Mosque. All are welcome to attend the funeral prayer and accompany the deceased to the cemetery.
