Islamic burial in Germany is gaining increasing importance. More and more cities and municipalities are enabling burials according to Islamic rites, particularly without a coffin, as prescribed by Islamic religious practice. Major cities are leading the way, but smaller towns and rural regions are increasingly following suit. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
An Islamic burial is traditionally conducted according to the precepts of Islam: ritual washing (Ghusl), shrouding in the burial cloth (Kafan), funeral prayer (Salat al-Janazah), and burial facing Mecca. In many federal states, cemetery regulations have been adapted so that burial without a coffin is legally permissible at selected cemeteries. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
