Islamic burial clothes

Islamic burial clothes, known as kafan, are simple, white garments used to wrap the deceased, symbolizing purity and equality in death. Men are typically wrapped in three pieces of plain white cloth, while women usually wear two pieces, covering the entire body except the face and hands. The garments are unadorned and modest, emphasizing humility and the spiritual focus of life and death. The purpose is to honor the individual respectfully and uniformly, reflecting Islamic beliefs in the equality of all humans before God.
