Raising the hands with every takbir and moving the deceased to pray over him in Makkah
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Does one raise his hands with every takbir? And is it permissible to take the deceased?
The Shaykh:
I have not heard that one raises his hands with every takbir of the takbirs of the funeral prayer; this is an illness.
The questioner:
Say, is it permissible to take the deceased to Makkah to pray over him?
The Shaykh:
Hurrying to bury the deceased is better than transporting him. And if he is transported to Makkah or elsewhere, there is no harm, as long as it does not cause him harm, because the deceased is harmed by being transported, meaning he may decompose or suffer some change during the transport. In that case, he should be buried promptly. But if it is safe that nothing will happen to him, then it is permissible to transport him. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence the Shaykh
