The Ruling on the Funeral Prayer in the Sacred Precinct
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh:
Because the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did not permit it, so what he left, we leave, and if someone does it, we leave it.
The questioner:
Regarding the funeral prayer, is it permissible in the Sacred Precinct? Is the funeral prayer permissible in the Sacred Precinct?
The Shaykh:
If you pray on this stone, the prayer is valid, but there is no need for the stone; pray in the mosque. There is no need if you place it on a stone, and even if you pray on a stone, the prayer is valid. Yes.
