The questioner : How does one who joins the funeral prayer late perform the prayer?
The Shaykh : The meaning of the question is: if you arrive while the imam is praying over the funeral and you catch only the last takbirs, what do you do? We say: if the imam concludes the prayer and the funeral remains, and it is the norm that it does not remain, if it remains, then complete the prayer in its usual manner. And if you fear that it will be lifted, as is the case, then you have the choice between concluding the prayer with the imam or continuing the takbirs and concluding before it is lifted. This is what the scholars said.
