If they are fighting in US Military we will assume that they have been assimilated into western society at least some what.
As A Member of our base honor guard in the Air Force i know that the military will accomodate provisions to satisfy general requirements of an islamic burial rite. I wouldnt exactly call the ceremony traditional, but it is fully acceptable or "halal" [which is basically the arabic equivalent to kosher]

They bury in accordance with the wishes of the soldier or family, depending on the will and such. all religious practices are respected, and they are entitled to a full honor guard if requested and a plot at arlington if they had been decorated previously. Not just anyone can be buried there anymore due to lack of space, you have to get a medal to be put there.

If they have a will, most soldiers do, their burial/funeral will take place upon their wishes. All soldiers killed in a Combat Zone are entitled to a Miltary Funeral, With full military honors, and a funeral plot at Arlington National Cemetary, if they so wish to be placed there. As far as Muslim traditions go, I don't know.

particular. I disagree with the thought those suicides are quickly linked to form of excursions. i've got self belief it is melancholy brought about by utilising understanding they're in contact in a conflict no longer supported by utilising maximum human beings. mixed with the reality that the militia is all volunteer. Patriotism is no longer a reason to combat for u . s . a .. maximum the young little ones moving into the militia could desire to care much less approximately u . s . a ., many don't have a clue.

The military will contract with a funeral home that will do the funeral in accordance with their religion. Usually in his home town. The military will pay for the funeral home, casket, and headstone. They will also provide for an escort team to escort the body home.

The remains are returned home to the family for burial. They are serving in the US military. Their religion has no significance, and they are treated with the respect due their sacrifice.

He would receive a funeral in accordance with his religious practice.No religious law would be violated. We owe him that much.

It will be up to the family to decide that.
