Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Do I shake his hand, or place my hand on his shoulder, or what do I do and what do I say to him?

Answer:
Yes, you greet him with a handshake. You shake his hand and make a supplication, saying: May Allah console you in your loss, and may Allah make your condolence good. May Allah console you in your loss and forgive your deceased. If the deceased is a Muslim, you say: May Allah forgive your deceased. May Allah make your condolence good, console you in your loss, and forgive your deceased. Yes.
