Islamic teachings recommend that the burial be conducted as soon as possible after death. Only burial in earth is permitted; cremation is forbidden by Islamic law.

The various Orthodox Christian churches require the deceased to be buried, which is the only permissible funeral type owing to Orthodox belief in the hope of the resurrection.

The vigil is an important element of the burial, where members of the community accompany the body of the deceased from the moment of death until it is laid in the earth.
