The Ruling on Praying the Funeral Prayer over the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)

Question:
May Allah reward you. The Honorable Shaykh, he says: I heard one of the students of knowledge say that when the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) passed away, and after he was washed and shrouded in Aisha’s room, the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them) would enter to him one by one and offer the salam to him, and then they would supplicate for themselves and leave. In other words, they did not pray the known funeral prayer over the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). Is what that person said correct?

Answer:
Yes, that is it. The people would enter to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) individually and in groups and pray for him. Women would enter to him and pray for him (peace and blessings be upon him) in his room and at his location. He (peace and blessings be upon him) was not brought out, nor was he brought out for this occasion to the mosque or outside the mosque, as was done in the case of a funeral. Yes.
