The ruling on standing in anticipation of the funeral
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner, Abu 'Abdullah, says: Before the funeral reaches the cemetery, the people stand waiting for it until it arrives and they pray over it. Is this permissible?
Answer:
This has no basis. What is reported is that when it passes along the road, the one who is sitting stands up when it passes by him, as is in the Sunnah. As for the mosque, they do not stand. Yes.
