The Sunnah regarding the place for performing the funeral prayer
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Honorable Shaykh! Is it better to perform the funeral prayer in the prayer hall or in the mosque?
The better option is whichever is easier. We are not aware, as far as we have heard, of any special prayer halls designated for funerals at present. Perhaps in some countries there is a special prayer hall for funerals, but I do not know.
The questioner: The point is: what is the Sunnah, O Shaykh?The Shaykh: No,The Sunnah: Whatever is easier for the people; because a larger number of attendees and mourners is better regarding the location.
