Collecting the Remains of the Martyrs
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The seventh question of Fatwa No. ( 3897 )
Q7: What is the ruling on collecting the remains of the martyrs?
A7: The remains of the martyrs are like any other remains; the remains of each martyr are to be buried in a grave specific to him, unless there is great difficulty in burying each one individually due to a large number of deaths caused by an epidemic, killing, or the like. In that case, there is no harm in burying two or three in one grave, and the one best in religion among them is placed facing the qiblah, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) did with the slain of Uhud . And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
