The Ruling on Praying for One Against Whom the Punishment of Retaliation Has Been Carried Out

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible to pray for one against whom the punishment of retaliation is carried out following a crime he committed, or do only his relatives pray for him?

Answer:
The Muslims pray for him because he is a Muslim; he has not left the religion. This is a hudud punishment that was carried out against him, and it does not prevent praying for him. Pray for him.
