The Ruling on Preaching and Reminding at the Burial of the Deceased

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His final question says: What is the ruling on preaching, guidance, and reminding people at the burial of the dead?

Answer:
This has no basis in the consistent practice of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Rather, the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did it once for a reason: they found that the grave had not been prepared, so he and his Companions sat waiting for the preparation of the grave to be completed. He (peace and blessings be upon him) took advantage of the opportunity to remind his Companions during this period. He did not make this a regular practice. Therefore, making it a regular practice for preaching and reminding has no basis.
