Story

Dignified Farewell for a Forgotten Soul

She Passed Away Alone – Let’s Ensure She’s Not Buried Alone

She came into this world like all of us—loved, cared for, and cherished by someone. But as the years passed, life took its course, and she found herself alone in the world. A 73-year-old woman, once someone's daughter, perhaps a sister, a friend, or even a mother, spent her final days in a hospital, with no family by her side. Now, she rests in a cold hospital mortuary, with no one to claim her, no one to arrange her funeral, and no one to pray for her.

The local authorities have done all they can to search for her next of kin, but no one has come forward. She has no family to mourn her, no loved ones to bid her farewell. But as a community, we cannot let her depart from this world without dignity. It is our duty as Muslims, and as human beings, to ensure she is given a proper burial, with the respect and honor she deserves.

A Last Chance to Show She Was Not Forgotten

In Islam, a dignified burial is a fundamental right of every individual. It is an act of kindness, a final farewell that brings peace to the soul of the departed. Right now, this woman has no one—except us. This is our chance to step forward and ensure that she is laid to rest with the proper rites of a Muslim funeral.

Iqbal & Sons Bereavement Services has taken responsibility for arranging her burial. However, the cost of a funeral, including the burial plot and necessary expenses, amounts to £2,000. As a nonprofit organization, we rely on the generosity of the community to ensure that those left alone in death are still treated with the utmost care and respect.

Your Support Can Make a Difference

We are calling upon you—our brothers and sisters—to be her family in this moment. Your donation, no matter how small, will go towards ensuring that she is given a proper funeral. Even if you cannot contribute financially, your presence at her Janazah (funeral prayer) would be an immense blessing. Imagine if this were your own mother, your own sister, or your own relative. Wouldn’t you want the community to step forward and ensure her final journey is one of dignity and peace?

The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said: "Whoever attends the funeral until the prayer is offered will have one Qirat, and whoever attends until burial will have two Qirat." (Sahih Muslim). This is an opportunity to earn immense reward while fulfilling an essential duty in our faith.

Let us come together to show that she was not forgotten. Let us be the ones who stand by her in her final moments.

May Allah reward you for your kindness and generosity.
