When the dead person is put in his or her grave, would all or only some of the knots on their shrouds be untied?
Q 3:
When a dead person is put in their grave, would all or only some of the knots on their shrouds be untied? If it is some, which knots exactly are to be untied? Would their faces be disclosed on placing mud bricks on them, or would they be left covered?
A:
Yes, the knots on the shroud are to be untied after putting the dead person in the grave, because there is no need for them anymore; and the face of the dead are not to be disclosed as there is no religious evidence indicating their uncovering on burial.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
