I have accepted Islam. My mother is a non-Muslim.

Question

I have accepted Islam. My mother is a non-Muslim. She has no other children. When she dies and if there is no one to attend to her burial, am I permitted to arrange for her burial?

Answer

If the non-Muslim lady has absolutely no non-Muslim relatives or friends, etc. to bury her, then the Muslim son can arrange her burial without participating in the religious funeral rites.
