Offering the funeral prayer before the obligatory prayer and making up the takbirs

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Which takes precedence, O Shaykh, the funeral prayer or the obligatory prayer for the one who missed the congregation? And how does the one who missed the takbirs in the funeral prayer make them up?

Answer:
Yes, the funeral prayer is performed after the prayer. This is the custom of the people: they attend the funerals and pray the obligatory prayer, and after the obligatory prayer they pray over the deceased. As for the one who missed the takbirs over the deceased, he performs them after the imam’s taslim. He does not say taslim with him; he performs the takbirs and what follows them, then he says taslim. Yes.
