NZ returns bodies after delay angers families via SABCNewsOnline

Muslims whose loved ones were gunned down by an Australian white supremacist at two mosques last Friday have had their grief compounded by the failure of the authorities to return bodies to families in time for a speedy burial, as required under Islamic custom.

“While identification may seem straightforward the reality is much more complex, particularly in a situation like this.” “That is why you will never hear me mention his name. He is a terrorist. He is a criminal. He is an extremist. But he will, when I speak, be nameless,” she told assembled lawmakers.

“Wa alaikum salaam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh,” she said – “May the peace, mercy, and blessings of Allah be with you too.”Dozens of relatives of the deceased have already begun arriving from around the world ahead of expected funerals which have already been delayed far beyond the 24 hours after death usually observed under Islam.

“The majority of people still have not had the opportunity to see their family members,” he told AFP. Following the mass shooting, Ardern has promised to reform New Zealand laws that allowed the gunman to legally purchase weapons used in the attack.
