Osama bin Laden did not receive a customary Islamic burial, despite what U.S. government officials reported, according to experts in Muslim funeral rites.
“Dumping the body into the sea is not part of any Islamic ritual,” said Dr. Zuhdi Jasser, president of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy and a physician of internal medicine. “Koranic scripture says God created him and he must return to the earth.”
Why the rush to dispose of the body? Now all we can do is take their word that it was Osama.
