Question:
Is the prayer for the deceased in the cemetery, or is it better in the mosque?
Answer:
It is in the prayer area, and in the mosques. If there is a pressing need to pray in the cemetery, there is nothing wrong with it; the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) prayed in the cemetery for a funeral, but it is better in the prayer areas and in the mosques so that the people can gather.
Q: In the mosque?
A: In the mosque, and in the prayer area, both are good.
