🕊️ Funeral (Janazah) Services

“Whoever attends the funeral until the prayer is offered will have one qirat of reward, and whoever stays until the burial is completed will have two qirats… each equal to Mount Uhud.”
— Prophet Muhammad ﷺ (Sahih Bukhari)

Supporting You in Times of Loss

The passing of a loved one is a deeply emotional and challenging time. At Kinshicho Masjid, we are here to support you with compassion and care, helping you fulfill Islamic burial rites in Japan with dignity and ease.

While our mosque does not conduct Ghusl (washing of the deceased) inside the premises due to facility limitations, we actively assist with arranging all necessary steps according to Islamic guidelines and local regulations.

🤲 Islamic Reminder

In Islam, taking care of the deceased is a collective responsibility (Fard Kifayah). Attending the Janazah prayer, comforting the grieving, and helping with burial are all acts of immense reward.
