The ruling on praying over a funeral before taking it to the mosque

Question:
May Allah reward you. The brother Abu 'Abd al-'Aziz, Shaykh Salih, says: We perform the washing of the deceased, but we are unable to pray over them with the congregation in the mosque, so we pray over them before taking them to the mosque.

Answer:
Pray with the congregation, for this is better and more beneficial for the deceased. A large congregation is better and more beneficial for him. And you will receive reward if you pray with the congregation. Suspend the washing for the times of prayer, pray with the congregation, and then return to your work. Yes. May Allah reward you.
