Reciting al-Fatihah for women in the home over the dead
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q 2: Is it permissible to recite al-Fatihah for women in the home over the dead or is it not permissible at all?
A 2 : It is not permissible to recite over the funeral, neither al-Fatihah nor anything else, not for men nor for women; because this practice did not come from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), so it is a religious innovation, and every religious innovation is misguidance. And success is from Allah, and may Allah send prayers and blessings upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and his Companions.
