Transporting the deceased's body to his home country and keeping it in the refrigerator

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: We are residents from outside this country. When a relative of ours dies here, some of his relatives insist that his body must be returned to his original country. Does keeping it in the morgue refrigerator harm the deceased, even if it is kept there for a month? And what is the best course of action in this matter?

The Shaykh:
Even the regulations prevent burying him here; he must be sent to his family. His funeral is not buried here unless his family gives permission. If they give permission, there is no objection. However, if they request his presence and want to receive him, he is handed over to them.

The presenter:
That is the end.

The Shaykh:
And it is permissible for him to remain in the refrigerator for the sake of completing procedures, even if it is delayed. Yes.
