The Ruling on Announcing a Death in the Mosque
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: I am the imam of a mosque, and some of the congregation ask me, when one of their neighbors or relatives passes away,
The Shaykh:
passes away, what do you mean by passes away, what do you mean by passes away himself, and some of you pass away, yes.
The questioner:
I am the imam of a mosque, and some of the congregation ask me, when one of their neighbors or relatives passes away, to announce his death and the place where the funeral prayer will be held, so what is the ruling on that?
The Shaykh:
By that means, that is good, for the sake of praying over him and making supplication for him, and for them to gain reward by going and praying over their brother, this is a good objective, yes.
