Question:
What should I do when I have started a voluntary prayer and the funeral prayer is being established?
Answer:
Continue with your voluntary prayer. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) only forbade voluntary prayer when the obligatory prayer is established. When the prayer is established, there is no prayer except the obligatory one. This applies to the obligatory prayer. As for one who is in a voluntary prayer when the funeral prayer is established, he continues with his voluntary prayer and does not break it off.
