Question:
May Allah forgive you. A questioner says: One of my acquaintances here in the Kingdom, who is from Pakistan, died in an accident. His relatives gave him power of attorney to receive the payment for the donation of his organs. He asks how it should be distributed among the deceased’s relatives? One of his acquaintances here in the Kingdom, who is from Pakistan, died in an accident, and his relatives gave him power of attorney to receive the payment for the donation of his organs. He asks how it should be distributed among the deceased’s relatives?
Answer:
The apparent Sunnah is that a Muslim is not cut open, but rather he is washed, prayed over, and raised in dignity. The Muslim is respected; breaking a dead body is like breaking it while alive. So the best and most cautious course in this matter is that he is washed, shrouded, and prayed over, and his head is not cut off. I did not advise this. Yes.
