Aspetti rituali della morte nell’Islam in terra di migrazione
2017
Overview
This contribution is the result of five years of ethnographic research that has touched several Italian cities. Argumentation will considers the Islamic concept of death and funerary practices connected with it. Janazah is the Islamic term which means «funeral», but it also indicates all the funeral activities since the death until the closing of the tomb. There are several steps of this peculiar funeral ritual that mark the right way to treat a Muslim and to prepare his or her mortal remains while his or her soul tackles the journey in the afterlife. In migratory settings, transnational funerary rituals highlight differences between first and second generation of migrants, and the importance of the inclusive dimension of the burial location far from homelands.
