Janaazah

Who is a Shaheed?

Q: If a Muslim is robbed and murdered innocently, and dies on the spot, is he a shaheed-e-dunyawi? In our country in this time and age, which situations would be classified as shaheed-e-dunyawi?

Easy death

Q: My wife died in my arms looking at me smiling without sakaraat. She exhaled one small little breath out, she was not sick,was healthy. I have seen people died that was scary and their throats made horrible noises. My wife had no sound dying, does this mean Allah Ta'ala was happy with her?

Looking at the body of one's spouse after their demise

Q: My grandmother passed away a few days ago and after she passed, someone said that my grandfather is now a non-mahram for my grandmother and that he cannot look or touch her dead body. Is this correct? Because I have never heard this before that a wife and husband become non-mahrams after one of them dies. Also, can a husband give ghusal to his wife after she dies? Can a wife give ghusal to her husband after he dies?
