Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: There are those who pray the obligatory prayer in a mosque that hastens in establishing the prayer, and then they go afterward to the mosque where the funeral prayer is being held,
Answer:
No, no, this causes the ma'mum (those praying behind the imam) to miss the obligatory prayer. He hastens and establishes the prayer, and causes those who are present and coming to miss it. And this is more obligatory for him than going to the funeral. Yes. There is no hardship, my brothers, there is no hardship. Yes.
