Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner asks: If one of the Muslims dies in France or in a disbeliever's land, is he buried there?

Answer:
We say: He is buried in the Muslim cemeteries if the land of the disbelievers has a cemetery for Muslims. If there is no cemetery for Muslims there and it is possible to transfer him to the land of Islam, he is transferred. Otherwise, he is buried in a separate place, in a separate place, not buried with the disbelievers.
