The direction of the Deceased Feet when Lifting the Bier

Q: Janaa'iz-23: The graveyard is situated in the east so when the bier is Carried there from a westerly direction, the feet of the deceased faces towards the Qibla. What is the ruling in this regard? Will this be disrespectful?

Answer: When the bier is being transported to the graveyard, there is no harm in the feet facing towards the Qibla along the journey because this cannot be helped. There is therefore no question of disrespect. And Allaah knows best what is most correct.
