Stopping traffic when a funeral procession passes

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: In our country, it is customary that when a funeral procession passes, traffic must stop completely until the procession has passed. Is this prescribed?

Answer:
If this is necessary and the funeral procession cannot pass unless traffic stops or by other means, then there is no harm. However, if there is no need to stop, then it is not done.
