Usually in a cemetery. Or the body is cremated and the ashes disposed of as the family/loved ones of the family see fit.
1. (Ecclesiastes 3:20) ". . .All are going to one place. They have all come to be from the dust, and they are all returning to the dust."
Jehovah's Witnesses bury their dead in the ground. As all others, their dead are buried in a cemetery. Cremation is also an acceptable alternative.
2. (Ecclesiastes 9:5) ". . .For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten."
Jehovah's Witnesses are keenly aware that there is no suffering, pain or torment in death.
3. (Acts 24:15) ". . .and I have hope toward God, which hope these [men] themselves also entertain, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous."
They eagerly anticipate seeing there dead loved ones once again.
Jehovah's Witnesses base their beliefs on what Jehovah God has revealed in The Bible regarding what pleases him and what offends him. The Bible relates how some burials were performed historically. For example, Abraham and Moses were buried in caves. Lazarus was laid into a tomb that may have been manmade or natural. This was the custom for the time but this doesn't mean they are prescribed methods for burial or that there are rituals related to burial. Burials are generally conducted according to what is customary in the deceased person's area. The faithful man Joseph followed the customary practices in Egypt for embalming his father, and Jesus' body was prepared for burial according to the Jewish customs of the time (Genesis 50:2,3; John 19:40). The exception would be customs that involve anything to do with belief in afterlife or spiritistic practices. Deuteronomy 18:10-12 warns "there should not be found among you anyone... who inquires of the dead. For everyone doing these things in something detestable to Jehovah." Jehovah's Witnesses draw attention to the marvelous promise Jesus made found at Matthew 5:28,29 "all those in the memorial tombs will hear his (Jesus') voice and come out" to a resurrection. They will have the opportunity to enjoy restored health and everlasting life under the blessings of Christ's kingdom.
The answer - it's up to the family members or the deceased person's request. There's nothing written anywhere that I am aware of any time period, again it would be according to family members or the deceased person's request.
Yes, Jehovah's Witnesses bury their dead in coffins. A memorial service is usually done at local kingdom hall of Jehovah's Witnesses or at another place (e.g the deceased home or at the burial site) then a time to view the decease in a coffin is observe. The dead is then buried.
Additionally,
The above answer is correct, but the final decision is up to the family. If they are buried, then of course a coffin is used, but some choose cremation, in which case a coffin would not be utilized, but a urn.
This is strictly a personal matter, decided by the ones who are making the funeral arrangements.
Whatever is suitable for the family within the limits of the local laws.
