Praying over the funeral in the cemetery, then in the mosque

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We often ask Shaykh Salih about praying over the funeral, especially in the cemetery. If a person prays over it in the cemetery, does he pray over it a second time in the mosque, or is it the other way around?

Answer:
There is nothing wrong with that, but if he has prayed over it, that is sufficient. What remains is that he makes du'a for her, stands at the grave after the burial, asks Allah to grant her steadfastness, and seeks forgiveness for her, as the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) commanded. Yes.
