Is it permissible in Islam to send wreath or flowers to funerals?
Sending wreath or flowers to funeral ceremonies or placing them on graves have no benefit for the deceased person. On the other hand, such expenses are considered as extravagance as they have no point. With this respect, it is more suitable to donate the money to be spent for wreath to a charity or poor people by donating its thawab to the soul of the deceased person.
