Avelut 6: Suicide; Cremation. - a podcast by Rabbi Haim Ovadia

In this session we conclude the discussion of the proper practices for funeral, shiva, and mourning for a person who has committed suicide. According to R. I.M. Hazzan, all cases which seem to indicate suicide should be treated as any other cases of death, and even greater care and attention should be given to the family. we also started the discussion on the origin of the idea of burial in the ground and what is the attitude towards cremation.
