Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on praying over a grave during the prohibited times?
Answer:
It is not permissible to pray over a grave during the prohibited times, except when it is during the long prohibited time, that is, after the 'Asr prayer and after the Fajr prayer. In this case, the prohibited time is long, so there is no harm in praying during this time; because it is one of the prayers with a cause. As for the short prohibited times, which are those mentioned in the hadith of 'Uqbah in Sahih Muslim, where he said :Bulugh al-Maram 2:15, then it is not permissible to pray over the deceased or bury him during these times, because of this authentic hadith.

There are three times at which Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) used to forbid us to pray or bury our dead: (a) when the sun begins to rise till it is fully up, (b) when the sun is at its height at midday till it passes the meridian, and (c) when the sun draws near to setting
ثلاث ساعات كان رسول الله ﷺ ينهانا أن نصلي فيهن، وأن نقبر فيهن موتانا: حين تطلع الشمس بازغة حتى ترتفع، وحين يقوم قائم الظهيرة حتى تزول، وحين تضيف الشمس للغروب
