The Ruling on Repeating the Funeral Prayer for Those Who Were Not Present
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Performing the prayer over the funeral multiple times.
The Shaykh:
If it is for certain reasons, there is no harm. The people did not attend and pray over it, so there is no harm.
The questioner:
No, look, one person liked it.
The Shaykh:
Meaning, he attended with the people.
The questioner:
He prayed in the prayer area, then he prayed with the people in the prayer area.
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with that. He did not pray alone; he prayed with the people, so it does not harm. May Allah reward you with good. Praise be to Allah.
