Question:
May Allah reward you. If a person did not pray over the deceased, and then after a month he remembered it or learned of it, and then he came and prayed over him, what is the ruling on that?
Answer:
No, the prayer over him has passed, because after the month the body has decomposed, and in most cases the body has decomposed. The prayer over the deceased, the prayer over the grave, is up to one month, as the scholars have mentioned, because after the month it decomposes and becomes dust. And Allah knows best. Yes.
