SEE WHY I LOVE the way that Muslims conduct their funeral? People have now turned even burials into occasions of making outrageous money! Everything is now business. Vanity has caught up with us like a leprous disease that even funeral rites of passage and the very expected sober reflections are all outrageous facades, charades: a thin veneer of fulfillment of righteousness that only deceives those who want to be deceived. These people, I am sure, did not even listen to the burial sermon preached when their late mum was lying in state. Their vane preoccupation was more about the manner and proportion in which the money realized during the burial was to be shared after the funeral.
WELL, THEY HAVE another stiff in their messy hands. I hope they raise more money in the burial this time around. Shame on you guys!
I BLAME those people who contributed the money that has caused this problem—those people who would not as much as deign to buy you a cup of water when you are alive, but donate thousands for a golden casket in the event of your death. May godly fate not leave them unpunished!
