Editing Burial (section)

===Burial in the Baháʼí Faith===
In the [[Baháʼí Faith]], burial law prescribes both the location of burial and burial practices and precludes cremation of the dead. It is forbidden to carry the body for more than one hour's journey from the place of death. Before interment the body should be wrapped in a shroud of silk or cotton, and a ring should be placed on its finger bearing the inscription "I came forth from God, and return unto Him, detached from all save Him, holding fast to His Name, the Merciful, the Compassionate". The coffin should be of crystal, stone or hard fine wood. Also, before interment, a specific Prayer for the Dead<ref>{{cite web|url=http://reference.bahai.org/en/t/b/KA/ka-14.html |title=Baháʼí Reference Library – The Kitáb-i-Aqdas, pp. 101–2 |publisher=Reference.bahai.org |date=31 December 2010 |access-date=25 March 2011}}</ref> is ordained. The body should be placed with the feet facing the [[Qiblih]]. The formal prayer and the ring are meant to be used for those who have reached 15 years of age.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://bahai-library.com/compilation_bahai_burial |title=Baháʼí Burial |publisher=Bahai-library.com |access-date=25 March 2011}}</ref>
