What is the ruling on burying a deceased person at night?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : A woman passed away, and now they want to bury her, but Allah decreed that they could not bury her until after the 'Asr prayer, and they did not bury her until after the Maghrib prayer!
The Shaykh : Did they bury her after the prayer or not?
The questioner : No, they buried her after the Maghrib prayer.
The Shaykh : Fine, after they buried her, what are you asking about?! Did they not ask before burying her?!
The questioner : I mean the ruling on burial?
The Shaykh : Burial at night is not permissible, and burial during the time of dislike is not permissible. However, the time of dislike after 'Asr begins when the sun turns yellow, not immediately after 'Asr. Is that clear? When does the dislike begin? When the sun turns yellow. A deceased person is not buried at night except out of dire necessity.
The Shaykh: Is there anyone else?
