Question:
He says: It is the custom of our people that when a relative of ours dies, we pray over him as a congregation, along with his family, in the house, and then they take him to the mosque,

Answer:
you pray over him with the Muslims; this is what is best. You pray over him with the Muslims, except for those who are unable to go to the mosque, such as women, the sick, or the elderly. The one who is unable to go to the mosque prays over him in the home.
