funeral of a non Muslim Asalammu Alaykum
I know a person who has cancer and I think the doctors have given him not long to live. I know that only Allah Ta'ala knows when ones time is up. However he has asked me to come to his funeral.
I think out of humanity I should go, however what is the Islamic ruling on going to q non Muslims funeral.
Am I forced to go in any way cos he asked me to come or what
Barakallahu feekh

But Allah (swt) rejected that and refuted it by saying: "And they worship besides Allah (swt) things that hurt them not, nor profit them, and they say `these are our intercessors with Allah (swt)'. Say `Do you inform Allah (swt) of that which he knows not in the Heavens and on the Earth?' Glorified and Exalted be He above all that which they associate as partners with Him!"

Re: funeral of a non Muslim I heard there was a difference in opinion in this. I mean the attending of course, not the participating in musical hymns, shirk and whatnot.
Best to ask a shaykh or student of knowledge.
