Offering Janazah Prayer after an obligatory Prayer


395

Q: One of the customary practices in our community is to offer Janazah (Funeral) Prayer after an obligatory Prayer, such as Zhuhr (Noon) Prayer or any other Salah (Prayer). Is it permissible for us to offer Janazah Prayer at times other than those of obligatory Prayers? If no, (Part No. 7; Page No. 275) why should we offer Janazah only at the time of obligatory Prayers?


A: It is permissible to offer Janazah Prayer at any time, whether after an obligatory Prayer or otherwise. In fact, many people are used to offer Janazah Prayer after an obligatory Prayer as it is more likely to gather the greatest number of people and in order not to make it difficult for people to gather at a time other than that of obligatory Prayers. Actually, this matter is open to choice.May Allah grant us success. May peace and blessings be upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and Companions.
