Subject:	Permissable to write an obitua
Question:	Assalamulaikum dear Sheikh My question is on behalf of a friend whose father recently passed away. The family wished to write an obituary about him, but later read something online that this was not permitted. However, the source looks like salafi sunni Islam, so please advise on the Shia perspective. Are eulogies and obituaries permitted? Thank you for your kind help. Wasalam
