The ruling on praying over the deceased before going to the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Salih, regarding praying over the deceased before taking him to the gathering, Honorable Shaykh, what is the ruling?

Answer:
This is not to be done except by women who do not go to the mosques; they pray over him before he is carried to the mosques. As for those who are able to walk to the mosques, they go and pray with the congregation, because the larger the congregation is in the prayer over the deceased, the better it is. Yes.
