In such a time of tradegy it is shocking to see an annoucement neither of his children Florence or Hadija were made aware of about their loving father.
in acordance with the Islamic teachings I posed the Question:
What is the ruling in islam on taking the body of the deceased to ones own country like West Africe. My family have carried this out several times and would like to know wether it is Islamically permissible to take a body to a different country or is it better for the deceased to bury them in UK.
Answer:
If one keeps all the texts on this issue in view, one will accept that the pure Shariah emphasises that the dead be buried as soon as possible regardless of the land they may be in, unless there may be fear of the desecration of their bodies.
To delay the burial just so that the deceased may be buried in Pakistan is causing unecessary pain to the dead person. Whenever the Sahabah would die in far off lands, they would rarely if ever be transported back to their original homes, even though in their case they came from the best places in the World i.e. Mecca and Medinah. Thus we find their graves scattered all over the World in a plethora of distant places where they had gone to spread the Religion.
This unfortunate practice of transporting the dead to other countries must be stopped and people should be alerted of its unislamic nature and that in fact a person could be commiting a very big sin by doing this. Aside from the harsh manner of transport on the plane, where the body is shoved around, according to the regulations that govern the transport of bodies overseas, the corpse must undergo special treatment which involves cutting open the body, removing organs including the eyes and filling it with chemical preservative all of which is completely forbidden.

Therefore please do not donate futher monies to either accounts as burial arrangements have been made..
