Making up the missed funeral prayer

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Q: Does the one who prays make up the funeral prayer if he enters and has missed part of it?

A: He makes it up immediately. If he catches up with the imam at the third takbir, he says takbir and recites al-Fatihah. When the imam says the fourth takbir, he says his second takbir and prays upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). When the imam says taslim, he says the third takbir and says: “O Allah, forgive him,” until the end of the supplication. Then he says the fourth takbir and says taslim.
