The questioner:
Yes.
The Shaykh:
It was in the funeral prayer with us before evening, may Allah prolong your life.
The presenter:
Yes, yes, I am with you. I hear what your question is. Please, go ahead.
The questioner:
And we missed the 'Asr prayer, and we found them praying over the deceased, and they prayed the funeral prayer for us. May Allah prolong your life.
The presenter:
Before 'Asr.
The questioner:
'Asr, yes.
The presenter:
Just that.
The questioner:
Okay, thank you. Okay. This brother Sa'id says: We entered the mosque during the 'Asr prayer while they were praying over the funeral, and we had not prayed 'Asr, so we joined them in the funeral prayer first. What is the ruling in that?
The Shaykh:
There is nothing wrong with that; there is no obstacle to it.
Yes.
