Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence the Shaykh, is it permissible to ask the deceased, before his burial, to convey the salam to the relatives of the deceased?
Answer:
A dying man bequeaths to a man. The dead man does not hear, so what does he say? Or does he think he is bequeathing to him before he dies? How does he know that he is dying, or that he will be terrified after he says to him? No, this has no basis. Yes.
