Q 1:
What is the ruling on offering Janazah (Funeral) Prayer over a deceased person in
Riyadh
and then moving him to his home town so that his family and relatives can offer Janazah Prayer over him, where some would repeat offering Janazah Prayer over him again?
A:
With regard to moving the deceased from the place where he dies to be buried in some other place, this is permissible, particularly if there is a certain benefit. On the other hand, if there is no benefit in moving him, burying him in the place where he dies is to be given priority, provided there is no impediment in burying him there. This ensures hastening to prepare the deceased for burial as the Prophet (peace be upon him) commanded. There is no harm in repeating Janazah Prayer over him, particularly for those who have not performed it over him the first time.
