Islamic International Funeral Services

Islamic International Funeral Services in East Harlem operates as a specialized hub for families requiring immediate and religiously precise funeral arrangements. Founded in two thousand four by Awad Elsayed Elmatbagi, the family-owned business is built around the Islamic requirement to bury the deceased as soon as possible, typically within twenty-four hours of death. Because of this urgent timeline, the staff functions as a high-speed logistical operation, coordinating everything from ritual washing, known as ghusl, to the complex legal paperwork required for international repatriation.
