Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. He says:The questioner : Is it permissible to raise the voice with specific dhikr when carrying a funeral?
The Shaykh : No. When the funeral is carried, there are no dhikr to be recited, neither aloud nor silently. Rather, a person should reflect and think about his own affair, knowing that he has just carried this person and that he himself will be carried just as he carried that one. He should think about his own affair; the day will come when his family will be pulling at the coffin, each trying to hold it. The day will come when his family will say, "Where shall we carry him? From here? From here? Where shall we take him?" and the like. A person should reflect on his own condition in this situation, for there is no living person who will not die. Yes.
