SHIA JAFARI Masjid Al-Nabi offers a cemetery and burial facilities, which we administrate under the organization name United Islamic Youth Organization. In June of 2005, arsonists set fire to the masjid and burial facilities, destroying them. Plans have been completed, and we expect to begin rebuilding soon. The cemetery in Adelanto serves the needs of all of Southern California, and beyond. It is the first, and the largest, cemetery in the United States that is in total accordance with Islamic law. It serves all Muslims, both Shia and Sunni. There are over 600 Muslims buried there, and another 1,000 plots have already been reserved.
