ANSWER:

This is not permissible. Muslims must fight with all means possible against this! Washing the dead is not contagious as long as they wear protective gear. After shrouding the deceased, there is no fear from any virus as he doesn’t breath while dead!

 

In a lot of non muslim coubtries, muslims are being forced to cremate the deceased who die due to Covid-19. Is this permissible?

In India if someone dies we used to see his dead body in house. Here during that visit they used to cook briyani or vegetable briyani and we used to eat in their house as a group. Ive heard that it is not allowed. Pls clarify this sheikh whether eating in the Deceased house is allowed or not..?
