Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Is the prayer for the deceased at the cemetery the same as the prayer for him in the mosque?

Answer:
The prayer for the deceased is valid in any place. It is all the same, whether in the mosque or outside the mosque, in the cemetery or outside the mosque; it is all the same, and the intended purpose is achieved, praise be to Allah. There is no specific place prescribed for the prayer for the deceased. Yes.
