Question:
Honorable Shaykh, a questioner says: My question is about the funeral and the matters a Muslim must know. Which is better, to follow or to be followed? And what is the ruling on supplicating aloud for the accompanying party who stand behind it? May Allah reward you with good. This is in the case of the burial.
Answer:
The accompanying party walks behind the funeral. When they reach the grave, they do not sit until it is placed on the ground. These are some of the rulings on accompanying the funeral, and they must not be preoccupied with worldly matters, laughter, or joking. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
