Designating Specific Mosques for Funeral Prayers

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner asks: What is the ruling on designating specific mosques for the funeral prayer, excluding all others?

Answer:
If these mosques have washing facilities where the deceased are washed and attended to, there is nothing wrong with it. However, if it is believed that this mosque has a special virtue and the dead are gathered there for that virtue, that is a branch of shirk (associating partners with Allah).
