Is it permissible to give the deceased an embalming injection if they requested it in their will—for example, for transporting them from abroad to their homeland or from their hometown to Najaf al-Ashraf—because, without the embalming injection, their body cannot endure the journey?
Answer
In the name of Allah, there is no objection to this. Allah knows best.
