Illi was converted to Islam in 2003 and has caused a sensation in recent years with her appearances in full body veils on television and at public events in Germany and abroad. Since 2010 she has been responsible for the Department of Women’s Affairs at the IZRS. Illi has six children and her husband, Qassem Illi.

The funeral according to the Islamic rite takes place in the Berner Bremgarten cemetery. Due to restrictions due to the Covid-19 crisis, only invited guests are allowed to attend the physical funeral. However, the farewell ceremony will be broadcast live by the IZRS. (ymh)
