One of the reasons that some muslims don’t mark the graves is to prevent grave worship. This is not the case in all Muslim cemeteries. In some cemeteries, graves are marked. It depends on the decision of the local Muslim community.
@TibiafingerVacation A grave is just the body of a human ... the soul which is eternal lives on elsewhere according to how that person lived when alive.
First of all : thank you so much for viewing the Muslim Cemetery cause I'm a fan of your channel and realy didn't see on other channels Our religion (MUSLIM) CEMETERIES. Secondly. The sign means the direction of Mecca Mosque that we should pray for and when anyone who died will be buried and his face should be facing that direction , also everyone who buried in any of these cemeteries their families knew where beloved people are buried
Come back to GOD , Quran says stand firm on books sent before Bible says any angel delivers another gospel let him be cursed , Quran says on last day king of kings worst creation, King of kings Jesus , Your prophet wanted his own son wife so he could have her then he got them to divorce and he married her , he also had a Jew burnt and beheaded then took his widow Jesus said live by sword perish by sword Muhammad lived killed and forced conversions by sword , Quran says no compulsion in Islam so he didn’t follow his own teachings cos Islam teaches death to apostates , Aisha was 6 on marriage 9 consummated Bible - believers will have GOD name on foreheads Quran - disbelievers will have have kuffar on theirs It’s not our GOD of the prophet Abraham Moses Noah Jesus Don’t lose your salvation on a man who according to Quran had to repent 70 times a day Peace
I felt sad when my moms aunt said she didn't want a marking on her grave, but now years later it's absolutely beautiful to see how amazing the land she was buried on looks. No large slabs of rock. Just green grass, trees, and animals such as birds. What made it more beautiful was she wanted the same plot to be used to bury more loved ones and now my cousin that died from covid just a few weeks ago is buried in the same spot. I can't wait to go back and see the grass grow back and take its place in that spot ❤️ RIP 🙏🏾
My Brother in law was Muslim and he passed away in 2013. That was my first time attending a Muslim funeral. The cemetery was isolated just like this one. It was very interesting!!!
@@MrCheerbo SERIOUSLY????! I pray to God that you aren't a so called "CHRISTIAN" for making insensitive remarks like you do! Then again ,you might be a REICH WING Christian , like the kind that supported the racist Adolf Hitler & 45! Grow up and learn some RESPECT for other religions!
@@MrCheerbo it’s so nice Simple grave No rich or poor Only what their deeds were they took with them Imagine you are decorating and placing flowers etc while that person is being punished in his grave Do you thing decorating will help Only thing that will help is prayer to God to Forgive them And that God Will Accept only if that dead person believed in God and Worshipped him alone and not any human or claimed that Hod can have a son( God Is Above all that)
My Brother in law is Muslim & his departed family members are buried in a regular cemetery, with regular grave markers. This cemetery with all the unmarked graves is a shock. Thanks for bringing it to us Lamont! 🖤🕋🙏🏻

1st time I've actually seen an Islamic Graveyard. I've heard about it but never thought it was like this ever before in my life. May the unknown Rest In Peace.🙏🙏
Very interesting. Thank's for the video, Lamont and for stopping at this place. Thanks also to the Muslim followers of this channel for explaining🙋👍 Every culture has its fascinating and unique way, even in death. That's a good thing and always interesting.
Very interesting. I’ve seen UA-cam videos on different burial and funeral customs from other religions but have never seen an actual cemetery like this. Thanks for stopping. I learn something new every day.
We may not know the names but I believe they keep a booking or a website with each individual name and where they are located. Fascinating gravesite thanks for sharing. God Blessed!
What's up Lamont. Thanks for this videos. I'm a Muslim guy☪️ from South Africa 🇿🇦. It's very common in Islamic traditions not to have a marker on our graves. My grandfather past away 20 years ago and also requested not to have a Marker. The fenced off piece could be a family plot. Many Muslim family here prefer to have an family plot. The word Qibla just means facing toward Mecca🕋👌👍👊😉
Quiblah, sometimes spelled differently, with the arrow pointing the direction to Mecca and the sacred shrine. The fence could be a division of tribe or family or even male on one side female on the other. Another cool video 👍🏻✌🏻
The Sing means: Point of the horizon or wall of the mosque facing Mecca and towards which the Muslim faithful direct their ritual prayers. "in this new qibla there is a mihrab decorated with dazzling mosaics of floral and plant motifs"
My understanding is when They pray; towards the Mecca, wouldn't it be similar to the way We are buried in the U S? When buried, We are mostly buried with head at the west and feet at the east.
Just out Curiosity no disrespect what so ever at least here where I live and I have friends that there family has owned and operated the oldest funeral home in our area back to the late 1800’s every one is lowered in the ground facing the east I never knew and when my husbands great aunt passed him and our son were two of the men carrying her casket well from the church to the cemetery we got separated from the recession so we went the shorter route but on this day we got stoped and delayed by a train so they weighted on us they carried her straight in but I seen my friend from the funeral home ask the guys after the graveside prayer and service if they would turn her around I thought so her head would be at there headstone but out of Curiosity I ask my friend from the funeral home why they turned her he said it’s because in our Bible it says on gods second coming and the dead in Christ shall rise that god he will be coming from the east. He said there’s no rule or law it’s just something there family and all the cemetery’s that they have ever worked with have done it from day one and you can ask to not be and it’s ok but they prefer not to. In the. Muslim religion is that what Mecca is no disrespect what so ever it’s interesting that’s one thing great about our country is the freedom of religion and that includes the muslim faith god bless you all RIP to all our loved ones until it’s our time comes to join them in Heaven with our lord and Savior thank you Lamonte. I’m almost 60 and this is cool and interesting learning experience I’m never to old we’re all brothers and sister in Christ Muslim included.
@Patrica Armstrong I think that It is the same way in burial for the Muslims? That how it has been done; from where I grew up. However, I have seen when the space in the Cemetery " Plots" have been narrowed down; that they have actually buried a person South to facing North.
Thank you Lamont this is so interesting! I love the idea of no markers because the purpose of being buried is to be returned to Earth and I am no longer in that body my soul has descended or ascended somewhere else. I mean don't get me wrong I'm Christian and from United States of America and I absolutely understand our practices of course but I can see how this would be something someone would do. Thank you so much for sharing this information with us it is always interesting and wonderful to learn about different cultures ❤️
@kimberly No problem at all and appreciate that u understand our religion, to give some information that some of the families don't put a marker for their beloved ones graves but they remember where they buried, and some others put a marker with their names on it so they could remember where they buried !
without researching it, i would imagine this burial practice is borne from necessity. the middle eastern countries wouldn't have the same access to materials as in europe and their ground would be much different. given unlimited the same burial advantages europe has, i wonder if their practices would be different -- i think they would. then tack on some religious moors....
Lamont, I didn't know you had this site!! We love your videos on Lamont at large. Thank you sir. It touched my heart to see you tried to fix the stone bird on that one grave. Thank you. Have a beautiful day!!!
Wow this is very interesting Lamont. I would never have known this is how the graves are prepared. The writing appears to be Arabic. And each sign you showed had different names I noticed. But I cannot read Arabic I do know people who can. Maybe the landowners are different people? Very fascinating indeed!
Thank you for making this video and all videos. I always learn something new here. I love learning about other beliefs, heritage, religions, etc. so again thank you and my respects for all departed 🇮🇹🇬🇧🇷🇺🇪🇸🇫🇷🇺🇸🇨🇳🇩🇪🇰🇷🇯🇵🙏
Very interesting 🤔. I believe you have opened up a chance for a person to search for more information and learning about practices of other religions. 🥰👍🏻🙏
Hello Lamont. I'm Lebanese and Muslim. In Middle East we have Graves with tombstones, headstones. Sometimes in Saudi Arabia, some people have grave like that, with no stone, just a name. The Quibla is the Big Black Box in Meqqa where each Muslim look when he pray, and when we interred a dead body, his face have to look to the Quibla. I would like to thank you for this video because it's the first time I saw a Muslim graveyard there. For funerals we have to make it quickly and simple like the Prophet Mohamad(SAWS)
The sign is showing 'Qibla' which is the direction towards the Kabba, the cube structure in Mecca. We bury our deceased lying on their right side and facing towards the Qibla. Some quick facts about a muslim burial, we wash the deceased, then wrap them in a shroud, then perform a congregation prayer for the deceased, bury them and when this is done a short sermon is given (mostly by the Imam or anyone) and everyone goes away. Crying, wailing is discouraged, instead we seek solace in prayer, reading the Quran. The Islamic view of this world is that it is a temporal abode, and the real everlasting home is the hereafter. Graves are also not permenent, we can close a cemetry for a decade or more then remove all the remains and either bury them together in another location or bury at sea. Then that land can be used for any other purpose. Here is a passage from the Quran, "Kulu nafs za'ikat il maut". Which translates as "All beings shall taste death", the tall, the short, rich, poor, kings and queens, Putin or Stalin, all shall pass.
My momma passed away in September and is buried in an Islamic cemetery and it’s very peaceful every time I visit her. The Qubla that you saw let’s us know which way to pray.
Qiblah is the direction in which we pray. Not sure why there are no names. In all our islamic cemetries in South Africa we have headstones with names and DOB etc. Nothing extravagant but we do have them. Also dont know why the separation. We bury men and woman together. My parents are buried next to each other.
I looked up info and found out Wahhabi Sunni Muslims believe graves should be austere as is it is considered a sin to idolize, thus unmarked. Even the Saudi Arabia royalty is buried like this. Thank you for showing us this cemetery
Wow this is so strange! It’s kinda sad like if that was my grave I would want my family to know where I am so they don’t go talk to someone else. Totally respect you Lamont and that u travel and show the actual locations.
Idan ka mutu baa cikin kabari zaka zauna ba asalima kasa zaka koma,Dan haka ko suna daga gida sukai maka addua zakaji su,Kai dai Kai fatan karsu manta dayi maka addua shine kawai.
I think they have to remember where their loved one's graves is. Besides you'll be safe from your enemies vandalizing your grave if they don't know which one is that exact grave.
So you don't recognize your own house, in a street where there are similiair houses? This is not strange, everyone knows location, and we do this to prevent people worshipping graves. And to know that graves are equal for rich and poor, everyone same ending.
@@anoniem012 no but these could be graves of ppl who didn’t have the option of a proper burial but you are right regardless of rich or poor we all leave the same way
Yes it's true we muslims don't build on GRAVES or Mark them because when we die... Rich or poor people become equal and its only your good deeds that makes u special in front of your LORD
@@FascinatingGraveyard that sign mean "qibla" mean toward the holly city kaba whenever muslim die he or she will be baried by the face toward kaba and secondly we as muslim doesn't mark our name on grave because we dont pray for the specific grave we pray for the entire graveyard thank you lamont from pakistan i love your content if i was able to travel to america i would meet you.
The qibla (Arabic: قِبْلَة , romanized: qiblah, lit. 'direction') is the direction towards the Kaaba in the Sacred Mosque in Mecca, which is used by Muslims in various religious contexts, particularly the direction of prayer for the salah.
@Facenating graveyard this is what quiblah means) qiblah, also spelled qibla or kiblah, the direction of the sacred shrine of the Kaaba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, toward which Muslims turn five times each day when performing the salat (daily ritual prayer). Btw, love your videos. Keep making people smile. Salute.
According to Google Quibala is a town in Angola. Also, The literal meaning of the Arabic word Qibla ( قبلة) is "direction". In the Islamic context it means the direction Muslims face when performing their prayers (salaath) What is the definition of Qibla direction in Islam? It is the direction in which Muslims face when performing their prayers wherever they are in the world. From any point on the globe, the Qibla is the direction which faces the Ka’bah in Makkah, Saudi Arabia and it is in this direction towards which Muslims offer their obligatory prayers , five times a day, every day. The Qibla serves as our identity and as a symbol of unity among Muslims. Also, I do believe that in Isamic cemetaries they burry their loved ones toward mecca the east.
They are facing the East in prayer. So My thinking is that When they are buried. Head is at the West and feet at the East; for the second coming of Christ. When rise, They are facing the East???
@@krissyleeadventures Qibla is the direction of Mecca(in Saudi Arabia) which is the direction we face when we pray. Depending on where one is located in the world you can face any direction not necessarily towards the east, in America you would obviously face towards the east meanwhile us in Australia face towards a North Westerly direction.
Hi Lamont! I love this channel, it's very informative. By the way muslim cemetery in my country got names on their headstone. Might be this one from Saudi Arabia.
One of the reasons that some muslims don’t mark the graves is to prevent grave worship. This is not the case in all Muslim cemeteries. In some cemeteries, graves are marked. It depends on the decision of the local Muslim community.
@TibiafingerVacation A grave is just the body of a human ... the soul which is eternal lives on elsewhere according to how that person lived when alive.

Interesting. I've never seen an Islamic graveyard before. I learn so many things from your channel!
Gorgeous..
I was hoping he'd cover a islamic graveyard
@@faiza515 it's not like this in Bosnia, Bosnian Muslims have white ornament on each grave from what I remember
Well now u have. U can go learn about Islamic gravesites
First of all : thank you so much for viewing the Muslim Cemetery cause I'm a fan of your channel and realy didn't see on other channels Our religion (MUSLIM) CEMETERIES. Secondly.

I’m so happy he is showing this! Thank you so much Macha Allah 🙏🏽🤲🏾
Thank you for the information, very helpful in understanding. Can you explain why no names are there and maybe about the fenced in area?
Some of the graves have bigger rocks. What is that a symbol for?
Tell us about punishment in the grave. 😁
Come back to GOD , Quran says stand firm on books sent before
Bible says any angel delivers another gospel let him be cursed ,
Quran says on last day king of kings worst creation,
King of kings Jesus ,
Your prophet wanted his own son wife so he could have her then he got them to divorce and he married her , he also had a Jew burnt and beheaded then took his widow
Jesus said live by sword perish by sword Muhammad lived killed and forced conversions by sword , Quran says no compulsion in Islam so he didn’t follow his own teachings cos Islam teaches death to apostates , Aisha was 6 on marriage 9 consummated
Bible - believers will have GOD name on foreheads
Quran - disbelievers will have have kuffar on theirs
It’s not our GOD of the prophet Abraham Moses Noah Jesus
Don’t lose your salvation on a man who according to Quran had to repent 70 times a day
Peace

Yes it's true we muslims don't build on GRAVES or Mark them because when we die... Rich or poor people become equal and its only your good deeds that makes u special in front of your LORD
True
Im moslem if i die, no headstone too and no name, just me and my shroud..
The sign with quiblah on points towards the sacred shrine Kaaba in Mecca
Thank you from pakistan for showing muslim graveyard
✊🏼
@@FascinatingGraveyard that sign mean "qibla" mean toward the holly city kaba whenever muslim die he or she will be baried by the face toward kaba and secondly we as muslim doesn't mark our name on grave because we dont pray for the specific grave we pray for the entire graveyard thank you lamont from pakistan i love your content if i was able to travel to america i would meet you.
I'm from south Carolina and yes its true some of the graves do have unmark graves. I don't know why but it do.

@@nickie7874 True but somebody gotta know them though. I find it hard if they or someone don't know
Wonder how they find their peeps. Since there are no physical markers. Thx for visiting this very different cemetery.
Hi Lamont, it stands for direction of the sacred shrine of the Kaaba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.
Great video Lamont!
This is definitely a first for me too. Maybe the fence separates because of the Class System? GREAT VIDEO AND GREAT CONTENT. THUMBS-UP ALWAYS!!!!!!!
Sometimes they wont allow the women to be buried with the men. They bury them separate.
The qibla (Arabic: قِبْلَة , romanized: qiblah, lit. 'direction') is the direction towards the Kaaba in the Sacred Mosque in Mecca, which is used by Muslims in various religious contexts, particularly the direction of prayer for the salah.
@Facenating graveyard this is what quiblah means) qiblah, also spelled qibla or kiblah, the direction of the sacred shrine of the Kaaba in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, toward which Muslims turn five times each day when performing the salat (daily ritual prayer). Btw, love your videos. Keep making people smile. Salute.
Always interesting.
According to Google Quibala
is a town in Angola. Also, The literal meaning of the Arabic word Qibla ( قبلة) is "direction". In the Islamic context it means the direction Muslims face when performing their prayers (salaath) What is the definition of Qibla direction in Islam? It is the direction in which Muslims face when performing their prayers wherever they are in the world.
From any point on the globe, the Qibla is the direction which faces the Ka’bah in Makkah, Saudi Arabia and it is in this direction towards which Muslims offer their obligatory prayers , five times a day, every day. The Qibla serves as our identity and as a symbol of unity among Muslims.
Also, I do believe that in Isamic cemetaries they burry their loved ones toward mecca the east.
They are facing the East in prayer. So My thinking is that When they are buried. Head is at the West and feet at the East; for the second coming of Christ. When rise, They are facing the East???
@@brendastewart14 I'm not 100% sure I'll have to do more research and see.
@@brendastewart14 Do muslims believe in the rapture or being resurrected when Jesus returns?
@@nickie7874 That, I don't know. It is the burial that sparks the curiosity.
@@krissyleeadventures Qibla is the direction of Mecca(in Saudi Arabia) which is the direction we face when we pray. Depending on where one is located in the world you can face any direction not necessarily towards the east, in America you would obviously face towards the east meanwhile us in Australia face towards a North Westerly direction.
That's really fascinating. Where is it, Lamont? Please be safe!!
Hi Lamont! I love this channel, it's very informative. By the way muslim cemetery in my country got names on their headstone. Might be this one from Saudi Arabia.
This is in America!
@@nickie7874 yeah i know that..they're might be from Saudi Arabia. Muslim cemetery in my country is not like that.
This is the right one
