Giving an eulogy for a non-muslims
As-Salamu `alaykum. The dearest and closest Christian friend I have is a 90-year-old former Catholic priest who has been a joy and a loving supporter of me for several years. He's a beautiful man with a loving heart for all peoples and an enormous respect for Islam. He never fails to call me every day to check on me because of my disabilities. My question is: When his time comes to die, if he does before me, is it permissible for me to give a eulogy for him at a church or funeral home? Because his wife, 86, may indeed ask me and many know how close he and I are. Jazakum Allah Khayran
