Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The fifth question of the fatwa number ( 21587 )
Q 5: Is it valid for a monotheist to participate in the marriage contracts of polytheists and assist them in it for the sake of kinship, lineage, or otherwise? Likewise, attending their funerals without praying over them and attending their burial? And is it permissible to sit with them and display grief with them?
A 5: It is not permissible for a Muslim to participate with polytheists in their occasions
that are associated with shirk or religious innovation, nor is it permissible for him to follow their funeral processions; because this is from the loyalty that has been prohibited. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
