Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, if a deceased person is in ihram, is his head covered during the funeral prayer and while he is being carried to the cemetery?
Answer:
No. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: This means do not cover it; his head is uncovered and remains uncovered until he is buried. The funeral prayer is performed over him with his head uncovered, and he is carried with his head uncovered, because he is in ihram just like a living person.
