I thought muslims are buried before 6pm on the day of their death? Why is Ali's own different?

Family's decision fa.....read on Guardian that His Muslim relatives are angry that His Wife chose not to bury him on the day he died according to Islamic rites.....you can keep go on Google, do your research or keep wallowing in ignorance ma.
Why are you muslims always on the defensive? Y'all need to chill and stop making Islam seem like a religion of intolerance (which, going by all that is happening all over the world, makes me inclined to believe that it really is)

This also goes out to most of those who quoted me.

Ignorant...

so if a Muslim dies by 5:30, he must still be buried by 6:00 ?

No fixed time, what Islam preaches is early burial and not keeping him for weeks.
What the muslims I have around me told me is completely different from what you're claiming.

Of course I'm ignorant of Islamic practices. Am I a muslim? What I know of Islam is what muslims themselves have told me and what I have observed overtime.

Prophet Muhammad was not buried the day he died. Even traditional Muslim scholars attest this.



Seriously, what reason passes to delay a burial? Whenever a burial is delayed by a family, they have their "good reason" for delay. Reasons which to you may be genuine and to me may be not be genuine. And vice-versa.

What you as well as the non-Muslims here fail to understand is this; For every doctrine in a religion, there are multiple, diverse interpretations and Islam is no exception. What one Muslim scholar believe to be Islam may be seen unIslamic or anti-Islamic to another scholar. This why you have Muslims who believe in 3 daily prayers rather than 5, lashing married adulterers rather than stoning to death, breaking the fast at the full dark night, rather than clear sunset. Perhaps, M. Ali or his family just didn't believe that immediate burial of the dead is a required Islamic funeral rite. That may explain why his burial has been delayed for about a week from his death.
Allah knows best!

Why do you guys like twisting facts? When did Muhammad Ali "marry many wives"? His first wife left him because he accepted Islam. He had to remarry and this one divorced him citing "his infidelities". He wedded another woman, and she remained his wife for over 30 years - until his death. At no time was Ali married to more than one woman nor did he divorce his wife -they left him. You may not like the religion he chose for himself but his faith is none of your business. All his life Ali chose truth over falsehood, kindness over wickedness, open-mindedness over bigotry, confidence over fear - anchored on faith in Allah. He lived and died a quintessential Muslim.

May Allah shower His abundant blessings upon you. I just don't understand all these intrusions into how Islam is being practised. And funny enough, if u challenge them for comparison of religions, they will decline. I have had several encounters with the Christian Evangelists but even from the basics of the two religions they will start running out of facts and the next thing is 'I have an appointment' and all that. But they will come online and start making comments that are completely off track.

Passed by the funeral celebration today but did not enter. Lots of people and traffic.

I went to his old house where he was raised in early age and first took up the art of boxing. I got these pictures. I am from the same home town as he is, so its not far for me to go and see all these. I even lived for some time on a major boulevard named after him.

Gaddafithe2nd:

Please, do your research well. Muhammed Ali and Malcolm X denounced Nation of Islam. They were Sunni muslims.
About his burial it all depends on the decision of his family, sometimes the deceased might gave them his words when he was alive, this is how he wants to be buried.
Muslims don't bury with casket, they can use the casket to carry his corpse to the cemetery.

Yes he did, it was even Elijah Muhammad's son Wallace Mohammed that led them to join the more inclusive sunni Muslim after the death of his father, but obviously that radicalised thinking in Ali never gave way. A Sunni Muslim that accepts the embodiment of its teachings will never ask to be buried in a casket.

Things that must not be delayed in Islam.

1) Salah(prayer) when its time arrives, 2) Offering the janazah(burial) salah when the bier is present and 3) Marriage of a woman whose match is found


The scholars in Islam are unanimous in their opinion that it is considered undesirable to delay the burial unless it be for a genuine and valid reason, like the absence of the guardian of the deceased, or if situation is beyond one’s control where the police or the governing authorities have kept the body for investigation, etc. The scholars are of the opinion that the burial may be delayed only for the guardian of the deceased to reach the funeral, provided no physical deterioration in the condition of the body is feared from such delay.


But to delay the burial of the deceased for a period of time, without any valid and compelling reason, or only so that all the relatives may be able to join the funeral would be undesirable.

Nonetheless, if there is a necessity for delaying the burial, then this is permissible.


As regards putting the dead in the freezer and whether or not he/she feels cold, then according to the view that it is permissible to delay the burial for a necessity, then it is permissible to put the dead in a freezer; rather, it might be that this is an obligation in order to prevent him/her from being decomposed.
