May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: If a person’s home is far from the mosque where the funeral prayers are performed, and he goes to it for most of the prayers, leaving the mosque next to his home, is that considered excessive effort?
Answer:
This is not excessive effort, but do not make it a constant habit all the time. Do it sometimes, and there is reward in it, if Allah wills. Yes.
