The Imam Attending the Burial of the Dead After the Funeral Prayer to Obtain the Two Qirats
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I am the imam of a mosque, and I pray with my congregation, then I go to the cemetery.
The Shaykh:
I.
The questioner:
I am the imam of a mosque, so I pray with the congregation of my mosque, then I go to the cemetery and pray over the dead after they have been prayed for in the main mosque, and I wait until they are buried. Will I receive the two qirats that are promised?
The Shaykh:
By Allah, my brother, this is excessive. Pray with your congregation and make du'a for them while you are in your mosque. Praise be to Allah, it is not obligatory for you to go and follow the dead. The mosques are [sufficient]. This is excessive.
