I was wondering if any of the Hajjis dying during Hajj travel are buried in any of the famous cemeteries like Baqi in Medina or Muallah in Mecca.
Figured out no one actually is. That they are buried there is a comforting word that's being told us by the agencies. But reality differs.
I did know of this for Medina, as the graveyard there is too small to accommodate all the Hajjis dying there. Even though the graves are cycled, not all local arabs in Medina get a place there. Only the elites get a place there that Saudi gov issues a permit for.
Was checking Javed vai's grave location. As published on FB it's called مقبرة شهداء الحرم translating "Graveyard for the Shahids of Haram". Located it on google maps. And the distance recorded 12 km from haram.
So is it within the border of haram? Still no. The border of haram ends at Aisha mosque on that side. Which measures 2 km. So where is Muallah? The famous cemetery of Mecca? That's 1 km from the Haram, that is within the borders of Haram.
But nevertheless it's still within the border of Hillah, the area encircled by Miqat, and nearest to Muallah than any other graveyard.
May Allah accept their good deeds and enable us to follow them.
