Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, does a woman pray over a funeral in her home initially?
The Shaykh:
Yes, she may pray over the funeral in the house where the funeral is or in the mosque; there is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
The questioner:
And does a woman lead other women in prayer?
The Shaykh:
And there is nothing wrong with that either, for a group of women to pray over the funeral led by one of them. May Allah reward you. And Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon his family and his Companions.
