The high number of deaths and injuries of the Corona and Muslim Jews, and the fear of transmission, has led to a change in burial and mourning rites in the Palestinian territories and Israel, and in the rest of the world.

In Gaza and the occupied West Bank, families of the dead receive condolences through the means of communication, and among them is Ihab Nasruddin, who lost his deceased brother to cancer last week, and his body was transferred from the hospital to cemeteries and the family could not pray to him in Al-Aqsa Mosque as planned.

"We took Ghaleb over the cemetery at the tribe gate, what we prayed for at Al-Aqsa because it was closed. We prayed in the same soil, about ten or 15 people were his children, brothers and close relatives, and we buried him," Nasrudin said. He continued, "After the burial, we received condolences on the same soil, of course. We commanded all: without peace, without hug, without blowing out. The situation was not comfortable, thank God, things went through."

The brother of the deceased adds that the family published on Facebook and the rest of the networking sites that they will not open their house to accept condolences for fear that the infection will spread the Corona epidemic, and invited the family of Ghalib who want to offer condolences to go to the grave of the deceased.

The Grand Mufti of Jerusalem and the Palestinian homes, Sheikh Muhammad Hussein, said that new fatwas were issued to deal with deceased persons with the epidemic of corona during the burial process, explaining that this matter was imposed by necessity and "necessities permit prohibitions" and then do not wash the dead or wrap the shroud, but rather be buried in a plastic bag.

In Israel, the deceased is usually hidden from the Jews in a loose garment and shrouded without coffin, but in the time of Corona the bodies of the victims of the virus are transported to be washed by individuals wearing complete protective clothing, and wrapped in a tight plastic cover. Before the burial, the bodies were wrapped in plastic again.

Funerals can be attended by no more than twenty individuals in Israel, provided that they are held in an open area only, and the rules of social separation are required not to embrace the family of the deceased, and this has affected the Jewish "Shiva" tradition that begins after the funeral for a period of seven days, when people visit a family The deceased to offer condolences, bring food and share memories of the late.
