Additionally, MCC recommends that individuals seek help from nearby Washington Metro Area Masjid Funeral Coordinators to obtain lower funeral costs.
Cost estimates of Funeral Homes and Cemeteries are compiled for community’s convenience and financial savings. Some of this cost may be defrayed through the Department of Social Services, if the family qualifies for financial assistance. Zakat assistance may also be available from Masjids.
MCC has prepared a document to inform Muslims about funeral guidelines. This document also contains list of Washington DC area masajids, funeral homes, and cemetries.
