Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: A man leaves the congregation of his mosque every day for the midday and afternoon prayers and goes to pray in the mosques where funeral prayers are performed, seeking the reward. Is this action prescribed, or is it an act of excessive effort?
Answer:
Is he an imam or a follower? If he is an imam, it is not permissible for him to do this; he should not leave the leading of the prayer and go. But if he is a follower, there is nothing wrong with it; it is an increase in good.
