Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
When praying over a person who is absent, and there are other funerals present, do you pray two prayers over the deceased or one prayer? And is the prayer for the absent person called a prayer, or is it not called that?
Answer:
One prayer is performed for the absent person and for the funerals present. The absent person is named, and it is said, “Pray for so-and-so and for the funerals present,” so that they intend this prayer for the absent person and for the funerals present, and they do not repeat the prayer.
