Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible for a man to bequeath that he be prayed over in the mosque where the worshippers are numerous, in the hope of intercession for him with Allah?

There is nothing wrong with that, if the bequest is for a valid purpose. Some mosques gather the people of good and a larger congregation, so there is nothing wrong with it. Yes.
