Question:
This questioner, Fahd, says: We wash the dead, and there are many of them. We are unable, Shaykh Salih, to pray over them in the mosque with the congregation. Some of us pray over them before they are taken to the mosque, while others go to the mosque to pray over them.
Answer:
Yes. The one who goes and prays over them with the Muslims in the mosque is the one who is correct and on the right path, if he is able to do so. As for if he is not able to do so, he prays over them after they have been washed and shrouded. Yes.
