The NYPD Muslim Officers Society (MOS) is a support network for Muslim officers within the New York Police Department. One of the key services the society offers is assisting with Islamic funeral services for its members in times of need. If a member of the NYPD passes away, the MOS steps in to ensure that Islamic funeral rites are properly observed. This includes organizing funeral arrangements, coordinating with local mosques, and making sure the family of the deceased receives the necessary support during a difficult time.

The MOS also works to ensure that the funeral service aligns with Islamic traditions, such as the washing and shrouding of the body, as well as ensuring the proper prayer service (Salat al-Janazah) is performed. This support is an essential part of the MOS’s mission to provide a sense of community, solidarity, and comfort to Muslim officers and their families, particularly in moments of loss.

The NYPD Muslim Officers Society plays an important role not only in facilitating these services but also in fostering a sense of unity among Muslim law enforcement officers within the department.
