Combining the hadith of 'Uqbah regarding the prohibition with the funeral prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, how do you combine the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), "There are three times in which the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) forbade us to pray"?

The Shaykh:
This is the statement of 'Uqbah ibn 'Amir. What is the statement of Nasb? Yes.

The questioner:
And that we should not recite the takbir for our dead during these times. How do you combine this with the statement of the scholars who say that prayers performed for specific reasons are permissible, including the funeral prayer?

The Shaykh:
These are times in which independent prayer is not prescribed. The time when the sun is rising, prayer is not prescribed. The time when the sun is setting, and the time when it is at its zenith, independent prayer is also not prescribed.
