Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Your Eminence the Shaykh, may Allah grant you success! It is known that the Prime Minister of India was assassinated, and four days later her son cremated her body, which is the practice of disbelievers. However, it is strange that some Islamic governments sent delegations to offer condolences. Is this permissible in the Shari'ah?
She is the one who inflicts severe torment upon the Muslims there, closes the mosques, and has no Muslim in her ministry. He also had a clipping from a picture in the newspaper Al-Madinah. It read: "Yesterday, in a strange Hindu ceremony, the ashes of the late Prime Minister of India, Mrs. Indira Gandhi, who was cremated last Saturday, were placed in four metal urns. Rajiv Gandhi, her son and the new Prime Minister, participated in the ceremony, which lasted two hours. Rajiv appeared gloomy, covering his head with a white handkerchief. A special train carried the ashes to different parts of India, while Rajiv kept one of these urns, in which was a fragment of his mother's body."
Answer:
This matter is like that matter; this is a hastened punishment. They hastened it for them before the Fire, making it a hastened punishment. This is part of the condition of humans, and the Zoroastrians are the heat of pleasures, so the punishment of the Fire is hastened for them before the punishment of the Hereafter.
