With the extremely difficult and sensitive situation and the ever increasing death toll in the UK due to Coronavirus. The British Muslim community are very concerned about any plans to cremate the bodies of Muslim victims of this disease. Such actions are against the beliefs of all Muslims and we require assurances that cremation of Muslim bodies will not occur under any circumstances.

I want UK Parliament to protect the right of burial for any Muslims who pass away due to Covid-19 infection. I understand Parliament is due to consider an alternative way but as British Muslims, any other way other than burial is not allowed & is totally unacceptable.
