Question:
We have a custom at work. Yes. And when one of the relatives of any employee passes away, this is circulated to all employees in a letter issued under the title of a notice of death, which mentions the place and time of the funeral prayer and the mobile number of our colleague who is receiving condolences. What is the ruling on this action?

Answer:
As for specifying the mobile number to convey condolences, this has no basis and should not be done. As for informing people of the death of their Muslim brother for the sake of making du'a for him and praying for him, if it is something good in the town, there is no harm. Yes.
