In the Name of Allaah, the Most Compassionate, the Most Merciful

As-Salam Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu (السلام عليكم)

الَّذِينَ إِذَا أَصَابَتْهُم مُّصِيبَةٌ قَالُوا إِنَّا لِلَّهِ وَإِنَّا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعُونَ

Allaah SWT says in Surah Al Baqarah verses 155 and 156, what can be translated as “And certainly, We shall test you with something of fear, hunger, loss of wealth, lives and fruits, but give glad tidings to As-Sabirin (the patient ones). Who, when afflicted with calamity, say: Truly! To Allah we belong and truly, to Him we shall return."

The IAR Cemetery Committee would like to inform you about a death in our community and request you to attend the Janazah prayers.

Reminders about the virtues of attending Janazah prayer for the deceased Muslim from the authentic hadith.

Messenger of Allaah (S.A.A.W.) said: "If a Muslim dies and the people who pray the Janazah (funeral) prayer for him total one hundred, and all of them intercede with Allah and ask Him for forgiveness for the deceased, then their intercession will be accepted." [Reported by Imams Muslim, Ahmed, and At-Tirmithi]

Messenger of Allaah (S.A.A.W.) said: "No single Muslim who dies and forty Muslims pray the Janazah (funeral) prayer for him, and all of them do not associate any deities with Allah, then Allah will accept their intercession for the deceased." [Reported by Imams Muslim, Ahmed, and Abu Dawood]
