What to ask when you call

  • Can the family or the masjid do the washing (ghusl) in your facility?
  • Please confirm no embalming, and burial as soon as possible.
  • What is the total price, in writing, including transport and the casket or shroud?

Details change. Call to confirm before you rely on this listing. A listing is not an endorsement, and it is never affected by payment or by using any service from us or anyone we work with.

Someone just died?

  1. Call the masjid’s funeral committee first. If the death was at home and unexpected, call 911 before anyone else.
  2. Ask them: who does the ghusl, what time the janazah prayer will be, which funeral home they work with, and whether there is a plot in a Muslim cemetery.
  3. Then take it one step at a time. What to do when a Muslim dies in New York.
