The questioner : What is the ruling if a unit of takbir is missed by the ma'mum in the funeral prayer?
The Shaykh : If a person arrives while the imam is praying over the funeral and he has missed one or two takbirs, I do not know of any sunnah from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) regarding this. However, the jurists (may Allah have mercy on them) say: If you have missed some of the takbirs and the funeral is still there, complete what you missed and then say the taslim. If the funeral has been lifted, as is known, it is lifted when the imam says the taslim, then you have a choice: either say the taslim with the imam, or continue the takbirs and say the taslim when you have finished the takbirs. However, I do not know of any sunnah in this matter. If anyone has come across a sunnah regarding this, let him help us with it, may Allah reward him with good.
