Fatwa # 19631                 Date: Monday,
from Pakistan            December 5th 2011
Category
           Jurisprudence and Rulings (Fiqh)
Title
           What is the Shar῾ī ruling on despicable crimes such as raping dead
           women and eating their flesh?

Question
           Recently in Pakistan there had been two incidents which I can
           say were the worst ever example of inhumanity I have ever
           heard of.

           1.   The bodies of dead women buried in their graves were
           raped after their burial.

           2.   Cooking and eating the flesh if the dead bodies that were
           pulled out of their graves. As both of the incidents prove that
           graves are not safe and there is an extreme threat to the new
           bodies laid to rest.



           I would like to ask:

           1.   What punishment does Sharī῾ah suggest to a person who
           raped multiple (50 ) dead women bodies in their graves?

           2.   What punishment does Sharī῾ah suggest to a person who
           cooked and ate many dead bodies out of their graves?

           3.    Today when such incidents are happening, does Sharī῾ah
                               AskImam.com




         allow to concrete the graves?

         4.   Do these types of acts have any effect on the deceased?
         Do they suffer pain?

Answer
         In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.

         As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.

         The despicable actions made reference to in the question are
         shocking and sickening. No sane sound human being can even
         comprehend such acts. Such actions are inconceivable and beyond
         belief. One can now understand why there are so many global
         catastrophes striking the Muslim ummah.

         The punishment of a person who rapes a dead woman and eats the
         flesh of a corpse will be at the discretion of the judge in an Islamic
         state.[i] Whatever the punishment maybe, it will be a deterrent
         and a stark warning for all. In the absence of an Islamic judiciary,
         such a person must be reported to the authorities and convicted
         for this horrendous deed. Such a person is a liability to the whole
         community. Today he desecrated the sanctity of the dead;
         tomorrow he will attack the living.

         It is impermissible to build any type of structure or brick work on
         top of a grave. However, if there is a strong possibility of
         desecration to the graves and a potential threat, then there is a
         leeway to do some brick work for protection purposes, provided
         other methods of security are unavailable.[ii]

         The Prophet salallahu alaihi wasallam said,

         “To break the bone of a deceased person is similar to breaking the
                           AskImam.com




bone of a living person.” [iii]

Based on the above hadīth, a group of scholars are of the opinion
that a dead person also experiences pain caused by mishandling his
body.

And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
