The ruling on making up the regular voluntary prayer of the midday prayer after the afternoon prayer, and praying the funeral prayer while sitting
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This person is asking about two issues: making up the regular voluntary prayer of the midday prayer after the afternoon prayer. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did this; he made up the regular voluntary prayer of the midday prayer after the afternoon prayer. Is there any harm in doing that? The second issue is: Is the prayer over the funeral valid if performed by someone who is sitting? Did he pray over it while sitting?
Answer:
We say that if he has a defect or is excused, he prays while sitting. But if it is out of laziness, he prays standing with the people, just as the Muslims used to pray it standing, and he does not deviate from them.
