1979. It was narrated that 'Ammār said: "The Janazah of a boy and a woman were brought. The boy was placed closer to the people and the woman was placed beyond him, and the funeral prayer was offered for them. Among the people were Abū Sa'eed Al-Khudrī, Ibn 'Abbās, Abū Qatādah and Abū Hurairah. I asked them about that and they said: "(It is) Sunnah." (Hasan)

Commentary
If there is more than one deceased, a single funeral prayer may be offered for all of them, irrespective of whether they be of one gender or more, young or old. Although, the males shall be placed closer to the Imām and the females, shall be placed away from the males. If the general supplication for prayer is invoked, that would suffice all.
