Funeral ceremony of Janati's wife

Ahmad Jannati is an Iranian conservative politician. He was born in Ladan, Isfahan. Jannati is known for his anti-LGBT rhetoric and opposition to secularism. He is also a founding member of the Haghani, school of thought.
Funeral ceremonies are carried out in multiple stages in Iran. The first step for any funeral ceremony is washing the body, or badan in Persian. In the past, the body was always washed by relatives of the same sex, using soap and water. Then, the body was covered with a long white cotton cloth called kafan, after which it was laid inside a wooden coffin before being carried to the cemetery, or ghabrestaan. Burial ceremonies were only performed after sunrise, at which point relatives and acquaintances would go to the cemetery and lay the body facing Mecca.
