Islamic scholars explain that if grave space is purchased for burial, the price must come from the deceased’s estate (taraka). The heirs are not required to spend their personal wealth for burial expenses. Imam Shafi’i رحمه الله said: “The shroud, perfume, and burial expenses of the deceased are taken from his wealth. Creditors and heirs cannot prevent this.” (Al-Umm 2/595)

Islamic Ruling on Giving Multiple Baths to the Deceased
According to this Islamic ruling and fatwa, the common practice of giving extra baths like janabah غسل to the deceased is not correct. Only the غسل میت (funeral bath) is sufficient.
Islamic scholars explain that the funeral غسل is enough, and there is no need to perform additional غسل for impurity. غسل میت does not require intention like other types of غسل, and it alone fulfills the requirement.
This fatwa clearly shows that adding extra غسل is unnecessary, and one should follow the correct Islamic ruling by performing only the غسل میت.

Islamic Ruling on Eating Fish Killed by Chemicals
According to this Islamic ruling and fatwa, all dead sea animals are halal. It does not matter if the fish dies naturally or due to some cause.
So, if chemicals are put into the water and the fish die because of it, they are still halal to eat. Islamic scholars have explained that fish remains permissible regardless of how it dies.
However, there is one condition. If eating such fish may cause harm, illness, or health problems, then it becomes haram بسبب the danger.
This fatwa clearly shows that permissibility depends on safety. If there is no harm, the fish is halal. If there is risk to health, it should not be eaten.
