The questioner: ... Pray the prayer of one who is about to depart
The Shaykh: Pray the prayer of what?
The questioner: One who is about to depart
The Shaykh: One who is about to depart, he says? Some imams here say this, but this is not authentic from the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said this on this occasion, but it is in the authentic collection.
The questioner: In Musnad Ahmad.
The Shaykh: In Musnad Ahmad and others, but it is not reported at all that he used to say it after the iqamah of the prayer.
