Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We would like you to explain to us how the funeral prayer is performed?

Answer:
Just as you recently attended a funeral prayer, it is performed as you witnessed. It consists of four takbirs. After the first takbir, which is the takbir of entering prayer, one recites Surat al-Fatihah. After the second, one recites the Ibrahimiyyah prayer upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). After the third, one makes du'a for the deceased. After the fourth, one says the taslim. Yes.
