I have a terminally ill pet and am preparing for the appropriate handling of its body after its passing. I understand that Islam favors burial for both humans and animals. I do not feel comfortable with cremation due to its contradiction with Islamic values. However, I wish to keep my pet’s remains with me and worry about relocating in the future. Would it be permissible to opt for aquamation (alkaline hydrolysis), a process involving water instead of fire, which returns the remains as bone dust? Would it be Islamically permissible to keep the ashes at home, provided they are not being used or repurposed?
