Is it permissible to send university or school students to mortuaries for admonition and to demonstrate the washing tools, instead of frivolous trips? What is the ruling on students gathering around the deceased to look at him? Is it permissible to speak over the deceased, answer the phone, or laugh, whether in the cemetery or during the washing of the deceased?

Teachers should utilize students' time in what benefits them, and avoid wasting it on futile trips. There is no harm in sending students to mortuaries for admonition and to observe the washing tools. Looking at the deceased is permissible if looking at them was permissible during their lifetime, but it is preferable to cover the deceased from the eyes of onlookers. It is disliked to speak without mentioning Allah or to laugh in the presence of the deceased or in the graveyard. Answering the phone is permissible only out of necessity.
