Ruling on following the mosques where there are funerals

Question:
Some of the brothers present ask: Some of the brothers go to pray in the mosques where the funeral prayer is being performed for the deceased, and some of them rebuke them on the grounds that the Salaf did not follow the funerals. What is your opinion on this?

Answer:
There is no basis for the rebuke, as long as the Messenger encouraged praying over the funeral. If it is known that there is a funeral in the mosque, and he goes to pray over it, he is rewarded, intending the funeral prayer in which the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) encouraged participation.
