Arranging a Burial
We understand that passing can happen at any time and so we offer same day burials alongside a 24/7 helpline (0800 211 8569) where a member of our team will always answer.
Helping our Ummah return to the Ākhirah with dignity, Eternal Gardens provides compassionate support through every stage of the funeral journey.
Our experienced team has guided families for over a decade, offering a calm, structured, and deen-centred service during difficult times.
We offer same-day burials and a 24/7 helpline, understanding the urgency and sensitivity of Muslim funerals. From Janazah arrangements to burial, our team ensures a dignified process that gives families the space to participate in important rituals with ease and peace of mind.
An Imam is provided to lead the scholarly-approved Janazah Salah in accordance with all four Sunni schools, while families are also welcome to bring their own Imam or appoint a family member. Every funeral is personalised to honour your loved one with care, simplicity, and respect, with ongoing support available beyond the burial when needed.
Shariah compliant
We all want to ensure our loved ones’ final rites are carried out according to Shariah. That’s why we consult with The Olive Foundation, which allows us to review all practices, processes and options with a highly qualified Ulama. Scholarly approved, allowing us to be Shariah-compliant ensuring best Islamic practice.
Burial Options
We offer Shariah-compliant burial options including traditional graves, premium graves, and family gardens, with all costs covering the plot, burial, service, and plaque—no hidden fees.
A La-Warith service is available in partnership with the Muslim Burial Fund for eligible low-income cases, with dedicated low-cost plots (enquire via info@eternalgardens.org.uk).
Families can use our full burial service or choose their own mosque/funeral director from our local recommendations.
All graves are simple, uniform, Sunnah-based, aligned to Makkah, and finished with grass and a plain marker.
