Reverts issues

[Hajjerr]

Salam aleykum.

As a revert muslimah i always have plenty of worries regarding my family...my parents. I try to keep a balance between the fact that they are christians and i follow islam. But as you know, there are trials in our life...and very often i wonder how will i handle their death. This will not be something where i can just step away. Since i dont have a brother, most likely i have to bury them...

What i would like to ask from you are evidences on early muslims, what kind of funerals they made for the non-muslim relatives. Or if you know what Prophet Mohamed, peace be upon him, said about this, i know he had a disbeliver uncle. Do we have the right to make the rituals according to the faith they are ?

This is a delicat problem. Thank you and may Allah bless you all.

Assalaam alaikum,

I came across this. I do not know much about the site:http://spa.qibla.com/issue_view.asp?HD=1&ID=2234&CATE=239

Waliekumasslam warahmatullahi wabrakatu,

If there is nobody among them who can bury their dead, then the Muslims should bury them, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) did with those who were killed at Badr, and as he did with his uncle Abu Taalib, when he died, and he [the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him)] said to ‘Ali: “Go and bury him.”

May Allah (swt) guide your Parent to Islam.

@Aapa That one is a sufi site.
