You mean El Rufai's bulldozer?

The fact that most communities bury does not mean other methods are not allowed. That is all am saying. Okay answer these questions.
1) If a Muslim died in a ship while on a sea journey, how will the body be buried?
2) If a Muslim died while in a place you can't dig. Tibet is such area in the world. They live on a mountain and it is mostly rock, how will the body be buried?
Know that the most important thing for Allah is our ease. Allah is not interested in putting on us a burden. So in Islam, anything that is not expressly FORBIDDEN is allowed. So if cremation is not expressly forbidden for us, know that it is acceptable.

OK sorry

The first writing is just an OPINION of a person. The second was an hadith. In that hadith, was it pointed out that it was wrong? Was it forbidden? He did that to escape Allah's punishment and Allah forgave him of his sins. It was not said in the hadith that what he did was wrong.

If a Muslim is to be cremated, he will still be washed and covered with clothe. Difference is instead of putting the body in the ground, the body is burnt. There is nothing humiliating in burning a body. There is also sea burial for people that died while traveling on the sea. In fact, Osama Bin Laden was given a sea burial by the US and I have not heard of any complaints about the sea burial.
Look, in some instances, it is NOT practical to bury a body in the ground. In some part of China (Tibet), the body is cut up and given to vulture to eat! There country is Holly and there is not enough trees to burn the body. In fact, they usually cook with animal excrement, not wood. If a Muslim die in that place, how would you suggest the body be buried?
In the Muslim world, burial in the ground is most common, that does not mean it is the only correct and acceptable way to dispose of a body. Remember that no matter the way a body is disposed, Allah will resurrect the body. You bury in ground, worms will eat. You bury in sea, fish will eat. You give to vulture, bird will eat. So what matter if you burn with fire?

Lol! I never called you a f00l, na English I write. I used "like a f00l" I didn't say "your a f00l" why would I say such, in fact u were the one that insulted in the first place

Back to the topic:
So you rather burry you love ones in cemetery where their skulls would be essumed by miners to extract their dead destinies therefore not allowing the to rest in peace?

What do you understand when Bible says "dust to dust, ash to ash"? and you said Christianity never supported it?. ....

mfm04622:
Quote the ayah or the hadith

mfm04622:
Not really. That is the most common form of burial in Islam. How do you think sailors are buried?

talk2percy:
but u can lower them six feet down and dump that sand on them??

Lilisticlili:
once one dies,they become non-human and dead bcus dey no longer live. So why attach feelings to dead things.even the bible said,let d dead bury d dead. Stop attching importance and feelings to ded people be it who it is.

thinkmoney:
my brother, study ur Bible. the Bible is not against cremation. if you want me to enlighten u, ask

victorazyvictor:
