Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : If they went to the cemetery and did not dig the grave, does that mean it is permissible for them, for example, to admonish the people?
The Shaykh : Standing, I mean.
The questioner : Standing or sitting?
The Shaykh : There is no difference between me speaking to you now while we are sitting in a gathering and speaking to you; is it said that this man stood and gave a sermon to the people? No, it is not said. So there is no harm. If they sit around him and he reminds them of death and reminds them of the state of the servant when he is on his deathbed and after burial, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) did.
