In the Jewish community, the ritual
that follows the time of death of a
loved one is called ‘sitting Shiva’. The
ritual begins immediately after the
burial of the loved one and typically
lasts for seven days. “Sitting Shiva”
is indeed a challenging tradition
among the Jews. Timely arrangements
and information are required by the
mourners during this time.
The objective of ShivaGuide.com is to
offer guidance and useful information
for all the essentials of Shiva to the
family, friends and close relatives of
the loved one who passed away, so
that they can feel at ease and get
the useful information and resources
they need, all under the same roof.
It is geared towards both members
and non-members of the Jewish
community. It is easy to understand,
easy to use and free.
