The one who misses some of the takbirs in the funeral prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if a person misses one or two takbirs in the funeral prayer, what should he do?

Answer:
Whatever he catches is the beginning of the prayer, the first of the takbirs, and whatever he does after that is the last of the takbirs. So he counts this: he recites al-Fatihah after the first, he prays upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) after the second, and he makes du'a after the third. If he fears that the funeral will be lifted, he continues the takbirs and then says the taslim. If he fears that the funeral will be lifted before he completes the prayer over it, he continues the takbirs and says the taslim.
