I was sleeping last night and suddenly woke up on hearing loud knocks of my room door. I opened it to find that our landlady passed away of heart attack. It was 23:30. I went out of the room to join the crowd of her relatives to show respect. After a while I went back to the room to get some more sleep but I found it difficult to sleep. This morning the deceased is being bathed before she is prayed and buried. What's the tradition like when this happens? Have a great day everyone.

My sincere condolence ! May here soul rest in peace. In my tribe culture as being a christian we follow the church rules Gather, pray and bury but one typical tracition some region follows like they cook food for the people who comes from far places . And the timing for burial is in afternoon like by 3 p.m as per locality rules
