Repeating the funeral prayer after burial

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: I prayed over the funeral of a deceased person in the mosque, then we went to the cemetery. Is it permissible for me to pray over him again after the burial with the other worshippers?

Answer:
No, you have already prayed over him, so that is sufficient. Do not repeat the prayer over him. The one who did not pray over him before should pray over him.
