Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, he says: When the deceased is placed for the funeral prayer, some people come before the prayer and pray over him individually.
Answer:
This is snatching, this is snatching, so this is not valid. This is also an encroachment on the imam of the mosque. This is not valid. Rest, pray with the people over him, follow the funeral procession, and attend the burial. You are on reward. But if you snatch the prayer over the dead from one mosque to another, this has no basis and is not known. A fatwa was issued by the Permanent Committee and the fatwa was announced that this is not appropriate and not prescribed. Yes.
