The Friday prayer is not waived for the burial of a deceased person
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you with good and do you well. He also asks about the Friday prayer. Shaykh Salih says: Is the Friday prayer waived for the congregation that gathers to bury one of their dead in a place approximately fifteen kilometers away from the mosque where the Friday prayer is held?
Answer:
They should try to pray the Friday prayer first, if that is possible. The burial of the deceased can be postponed; it can be postponed, or brought forward to a time before the Friday prayer. The important thing is that they must reconcile the burial of the deceased with the Friday prayer, and not schedule the burial at the time of the Friday prayer. Rather, they should reconcile the two, either by bringing the burial forward or delaying it relative to the Friday prayer.
