*Snip* Not that this is pertinent to this story but...

Judaism also outlaws cremation.... Judaism also requires speedy burial...

Muman, I am having trouble understanding this story.  The crowd was angry because the remains were cremated and caused a scene?

Perhaps, like in Jewish law, there are exceptions.  When a Rabbi is consulted, he may say it is okay to do a cremation.  There are special considerations the Rabbi makes.  This may be for Reformed Jews and/or Conservatives and never Orthodox.  I don't know.  In the instant case of the Muslim burial, could it have been that the family decided to cremate because of financial hardship?  You can get assistance if that's the case from whatever religion is yours, but do you think this is a possibility?  The family not knowing where to turn, decided to cremate because of financial hardship?  Thank you.
