Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, we are concluding this episode with this question. The questioner says: If I enter the mosque where funerals are being prayed for, and I want to pray the obligatory prayer, but it has ended and they are waiting for the funeral prayer, do I wait with them, or do I start the obligatory prayer?
Answer:
There is no harm in waiting with them, unless you fear that the time will end. In that case, you pray the obligatory prayer. However, if you have ample time, you wait and pray the funeral prayer with them, then you pray the obligatory prayer. Yes.
